#6 automatic language detection

[Ronny Thiemann]

Suggestion for automatic detection of the language of the game:

ubyte detectLanguage()
{
ubyte languageMark[4] = {'E', 'D', 'F', 'S'};
    int count = 0;

for (count = 0; count < sizeof(languageMark) / sizeof(languageMark[0]); count++)
{
    ubyte fileName[256];
    ubyte fileWithPath[256];
    FILE *p_File;

    sprintf((char*)fileName,"tcmaine%c.txt", languageMark[count]);
    dskBuildPathName(TEXT_DIRECTORY, fileName, fileWithPath);
    if (p_File = fopen((char*)fileWithPath,(char*) "r"))
    {
        return (ubyte)count;
    }
}

Log("couldn't detect language of the game!");
NewErrorMsg(Internal_Error, __FILE__, __FUNCTION__, 1);
return 0;
}

if (ErrorHandler.fp_CloseAll)
    ErrorHandler.fp_CloseAll();

        }
        else
