I would like to see the languages/extra.xx.php files in the language files' edit and compare utilities.
Till the extra.xx.php files were added, we saw the texts in the lang.xx.php etc. lists.

We should help as much as possible in the FAQ text translation tasks.

I would also like to see the module texts in the translator tools.

    The trouble with comparing the extra.xx.php files is that these files can contain things other than language variables. Indeed, they can be used to override global variables. This technique is even documented in the readme file.

    There's just no way the extra.xx.files can be compared for anything other than the various language variables. The language variables are $pgv_lang, $factarray, $country, and $faqlist.

    Is it enough to look for these, and ignore everything else?

    faqlist.php is already in the compare and edit list.

    SVN 1330 adds the "languages/extra.xx.php" file to the list of file types handled by the Translator tool.

    ***note*** Only these language variables are handled by the tool. Anything else in the "from" file is NOT compared to the "to" file.
    $pgv_lang, $factarray, $countries, $faqlist

    The extra and FAQ texts are now part of the compare and edit tools.
    I would also check for the $GEDCOMS['xxxx.ged']['title'] in the extra file.

    We should add the histo.xx.php files to the utilities.

    It would help a lot to also have the active module language files in the tools.
    Now I never know if I have translated all the texts.

    I would still also like to see the module language files in the list of file types handled by the Translator tool.
