1 This is a guide to compile strgen on gcc

     2 

     3 All this is done in the makefile, so it's only interesting for people, who wants to alter something themselves (translators)

     4 

     5 HOWTO compile lng files:

     6 

     7 First you get strgen compiled (look below/download nightly build/run makefile)

     8 

     9 strgen takes the argument of a txt file and translates it to a lng file and places that lng file in the same dir as the txt file.

    10 

    11 Example 1:

    12 if you are in the root of your working copy (svn code), you should type

    13 strgen/strgen lang/english.txt

    14 to compile englist.lng. It will be placed in the lang dir

    15 

    16 Example 2:

    17 you have strgen but not the source and you want to compile a txt file in the same dir. YOu should type

    18 ./strgen english.txt

    19 and you will get english.lng in the same dir

    20 

    21 You can change english to whatever language you want

    22 

    23 Commands used by strgen

    24 

    25 -v --version

    26 strgen will tell what svn revision it is based on

    27 

    28 -t

    29 strgen will add <TODO> to the missing strings and use the english strings while compiling

    30 this will need english.txt to be present

    31 

    32 -w

    33 strgen will print any missing strings to standard error output(stderr)

    34 this will need english.txt to be present
