Translations

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Would be nice to look into providing translated versions of PeerBlock for
non-English speakers.  Not promising that any work will be done on this
anytime soon, but I'd like to track the idea so that it doesn't slip
through that cracks.

In order to do this we will have to make the language translate globally.

So all statements made inside the program are pulled from an file with the 
translation 
text...

As it is, nearly all the strings we're making use of in the program are stored 
in the
.rc file.  So as I see it, we have a few options available.  We could do 
exactly as
you say, and essentially write our own resource-manager to pull the correct 
strings
(et al) out of a text-file during runtime.  Alternatively we could use one of 
the
options from this MSDN page:
(http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/goglobal/bb688160.aspx#ERC).  Or probably some 
other
method of doing things.

I've never had to delve much into internationalization of things yet, so this 
will be
quite a learning experience.  Hence the reason it's a low-priority far-future 
type
feature.

i would be willing to help with the spanish translation if necessary (native 
speaker). even more if it's an argentina-spanish translation, i've always 
wanted to 
do one of those.
