| <P><BR><BR> |

| <P><FONT FACE="Verdana, sans-serif">Some content of the scp projects |
| has to be translated in the supported languages. This is important |
| for localized directory names, or text output of some basic scripts. |
| This translation happens with the help of the so called lng files, |
| which are automatically included into the translation process. These |
| files must have the same names as the scp files, in which the |
| translated string is needed, but its extensions are .lng. One example |
| shows this simple behaviour:</FONT></P> |
| <P><FONT FACE="Verdana, sans-serif">Module |
| gid_Module_Prg_Calc_Bin<BR>MOD_NAME_DESC ( MODULE_PRG_CALC_BIN |
| );<BR>ParentID = gid_Module_Prg_Calc;<BR>Default = YES;<BR>Minimal = |
| YES;<BR>Files = |
| (gid_File_Exe_Scalc,gid_File_Lib_Calc,gid_File_Lib_Sc,gid_File_Res_Sc);<BR>End</FONT></P> |
| <P><FONT FACE="Verdana, sans-serif">As you can see, this is the |
| definition of a module block. In the user defined installation, there |
| is a user interface for selecting the modules. This cotains a name |
| and a description of each module. And of course these have to be |
| localized. In the module definition you see the line:</FONT></P> |
| <P><FONT FACE="Verdana, sans-serif">MOD_NAME_DESC ( |
| MODULE_PRG_CALC_BIN );</FONT></P> |
| <P><FONT FACE="Verdana, sans-serif">MOD_NAME_DESC is a macro defined |
| in macros.inc. There you find:</FONT></P> |
| <P><FONT FACE="Verdana, sans-serif">#define MOD_NAME_DESC(id) |
| \<BR>ALL_LANG(Name,STR_NAME_##id); |
| \<BR>ALL_LANG(Description,STR_DESC_##id)</FONT></P> |
| <P><FONT FACE="Verdana, sans-serif">Therefore this can be resolved to |
| the two macros: </FONT> |
| </P> |
| <P STYLE="margin-bottom: 0cm"><FONT FACE="Verdana, sans-serif">ALL_LANG(Name,STR_NAME_ |
| MODULE_PRG_CALC_BIN )<BR>ALL_LANG(Description,STR_DESC_ |
| MODULE_PRG_CALC_BIN )</FONT></P> |
| <P><FONT FACE="Verdana, sans-serif"><BR>And ALL_LANG is also defined |
| in macros.inc, but this is not important yet. Important are the two |
| strings STR_NAME_ MODULE_PRG_CALC_BIN and STR_DESC_ |
| MODULE_PRG_CALC_BIN, which exist in the scp file, in which the module |
| gid_Module_Prg_Calc_Bin is defined. For this file xyz.scp there has |
| to be also a files xyz.lng. The filenames have to be identical, |
| without the extensions. Therefore in the lng file, we find the |
| following two entries:</FONT></P> |
