I'd like to introduce three multi-language programs for answering a forum thread: How i can add multi language program ? asked by MehmetTR.
The first one is the easiest TextWindow sample. The array msg is for multi-language texts. You can get nth text as msg[n][lang], while lang is a language id. I used ISO 639-1 language code for the id.
langList = "en=English;de=Deutsch;"msg[1] = "en=Good Morning.;de=Guten Morgen.;"msg[2] = "en=Good Afternoon.;de=Guten Tag.;"msg[3] = "en=Good Evening.;de=Guten Abend.;"While "True" error = "True" While error TextWindow.Write("Language: ") TextWindow.Write("1 (" + langList["en"] + ") or ") TextWindow.Write("2 (" + langList["de"] + ")? ") num = TextWindow.ReadNumber() If num = 1 Then lang = "en" error = "False" ElseIf num = 2 Then lang = "de" error = "False" EndIf EndWhile TextWindow.WriteLine(msg[1][lang]) TextWindow.WriteLine(msg[2][lang]) TextWindow.WriteLine(msg[3][lang])EndWhileThe second one BGF911-2 supports 20 languages. I modified Jibba Jabba's Drop Down Menu System for this program.
The last one is a game Small Quest (alpha version). This game supports three languages and reads texts from files (*en-US.dat, *ja-JP.dat or *pt-BR.dat).
Let's create international programs!
