Hello,
in /kdelibs/kdoctools/customization/entities/general.entities are usually only
entities which don't need a translation like capitalization of application
names or trademarks etc.
These entities can't be overridden with a translated entity in
lang/user.entities, see comment in the header of lang/user.entities ("In the
case of name clashes, entities in this file always lose").
But there are some entities that we in the german team would like to have them
translatable to use these entities in the translated documentation:
<!ENTITY catalogmanager "<application>Catalog Manager</application>">
<!ENTITY kruler "<application>KDE Screen Ruler</application>">
<!ENTITY lskat "<application>Lieutenant Skat</application>">
<!ENTITY systemsettings "<application>System Settings</application>">
<!ENTITY zui "<application>Zooming User Interface</application>">
To make them translatable and make it possible to use the entities in the
translated documentation, they have to be moved from
kdelibs/kdoctools/customization/entities/eneral.entities to
kdelibs/kdoctools/customization/en/user.entities and added with a proper
translation to every kdelibs/kdoctools/customization/lang/user.entities to
make generating of language docs and compiling of a language possible.
Comments, objections?
