#5223: Locale preflet "Country" tab doesn't do anything -----------------------------+---------------------------------------------- Reporter: damoklas | Owner: pulkomandy Type: bug | Status: in-progress Priority: normal | Milestone: R1 Component: Kits/Locale Kit | Version: R1/Development Keywords: | Blockedby: Platform: All | Blocking: -----------------------------+---------------------------------------------- Comment(by stippi): damoklas, you are just not aware of all the features of Haiku's Locale Kit. Plain text files which are added later are not a problem and are already supported. It's just not how we handle the translation "shipped" with Haiku. These are being pre-compiled to maximize efficiency of starting up applications. Fast program loading times are not something we want to sacrifice because of internationalization. The workflow of translating can be made more comfortable, and as far as I know, there are some efforts under way to make this happen. But the way it was done in ZETA was not efficient, I know that because I got a glimpse of that at the time. -- Ticket URL: <http://dev.haiku-os.org/ticket/5223#comment:7> Haiku <http://dev.haiku-os.org> Haiku - the operating system.
