Re: [Docutils-users] Internationalization

[David G. <go...@py...>]

There are actually two places for language/translation modules: one
for input (docutils/parsers/rst/languages/) and one for output
(docutils/languages/). For this info and other background &
instructions, please read "Docutils Internationalization":
http://docutils.sourceforge.net/docs/howto/i18n.html

The easiest way to develop new language modules is in-situ. Just put
the new modules in the appropriate directories; edit and test them
from there. You can also inject language modules from your custom
tool::

    # appropriate imports here
    docutils.parsers.rst.languages._languages[language_code] =
input_language_module
    docutils.languages._languages[language_code] = output_language_module

When you have completed the new language modules, please send them in
and we'll add them to Docutils!
