* Er2 Locale
Originally it was a part of ErTK (under development),
but I decide to open source to other repository.
Currently there is only Lua implementation,
but you can port to other language.
* Syntax
Localization files is using it's own format (see ~syntax/example.els~).
Also you can see at the ~erl~ directory.
** Editor support
Syntax highlighting available only in ~micro~ editor
(~syntax~ directory)
* Tools
Except runtime we have 2 tools:
- ~compile.lua~ - Compiles els to one (prog. language specific!) file
- ~po2els.lua~ - If you want to migrate from gettext
or if translation program/service cannot export to els yet
* Example
#+begin_src lua
require('locale') 'erl' -- init and load erl folder
_.locale = 'ru' -- set locale will be used, maybe create $LANG detect
_("My string") -- basic usage
_ "My string" -- without (), lua feature
_("My string", {plural = 1}) -- print plural form, maybe create other function for this
#+end_src
