Language changes from 3.09.g2-sp3 to 3.09.g2-sp4:
In order to preserve any changes you have made to your language
files, you must update your languages appropriately using the text
provided. This upgrade has not been automated because the changes
you have made to your language file might not be recognizable by
our parser, and subsequently your language file would not be
preserved.
It will take some time to update your languages; remember that you
must update each of the languages on your system. The general
instructions are as follows:
1) Update your languages with the text below
2) Recompile your languages with MAKELANG
3) Repeat for other languages . . .
There is a way to speed up the update of your language files, but
it has some drawbacks.
1) If you added comments, they will be lost -- HOWEVER, the
comments will now match the master ENGLISH.TXT exactly!
2) It can only process the language additions and removals,
not changes. Changes are too subtle for my AI
programming skills.
That said, if you want to cut down slightly on your work, try:
1) Backup your current languages
2) Unpack the release ENGLISH.TXT into a temporary
directory ('UNPACK LANGUAGE.TWS \TEMP\')
3) Rename \TEMP\ENGLISH.TXT to a different filename,
something like \TEMP\MASTER.TXT
4) Copy MASTER.TXT into your language directory
5) Run MAKELANG <language> -M MASTER, which will create
<language>.NEW as a resultant file
6) Edit <language>.NEW, and update the lines which
LANGUAGE.SP3 has updated.
7) When satisfied, rename <language>.NEW to <language>.TXT
8) Recompile <language> with MAKELANG
9) Repeat 5, 6, 7 & 8 for other languages . . .
The MAKELANG -M feature will add new lines, and remove unused lines,
will update the comments in the language.
