I'm less sure about bringing the language into use; I think you probably have to go into Windows' settings and set the LANG environment variable (not via Command Prompt as I did, that was a temporary hack), hardly a user-friendly process. Anyone know of an easier way?
You got to be kidding :/

Anyone play Freeciv on Windows? How do you get to non-English?
-- if you installed the "gd" language in the installer (assuming it
comes up in the installer!, I haven't checked, report a bug if not), and
Yes it comes up. Not too user friendly I must say. I'm sure everyone on the list can quote their favourite ISO codes but the average punter? What's wrong with the actual language names?
For most languages, Gtk has already been localised long before Freeciv
has, so it Just Works. I can imagine that that may not be true for
Scottish Gaelic if you haven't done it :) or if it's only been done
recently.
Oh pooh... correct, it hasn't been done and I wasn't considering doing it, the impact would be near-nil in terms of users using it.
I fear it will not be possible to fix this by Tuesday. Even if you go to
the Gtk project and localise it, it would take time for the new
localisation to percolate into the version of Gtk we build the Windows
version against (which is at least in our control) and into Linux
distributions (which are not).
Ok, but I think some solution other than localising Gtk would be good. This will be a problem for Irish too as I don't see a finished GTK localisation.

Thanks re deadling/sounds/tech tree. I'll make sure to upload the po no later than Sunday afternoon not to cut it too tightly.

Thanks!

Michael
