Languages Overview - thica/ORCA-Remote GitHub Wiki
Orca supports string constants in several languages. Primary language is english. A set a predefined constants is delivered with Orca. Regional settings will be will be supported in future as well. The structure for language files is "stolen" from KODI, it is helpful to use their language files. The main language files are stored under [orca_root]\languages\[language]. Here you can find two files:
- strings.xml: defines all the language string constants
- langinfo.xml: Regional settings like time format for this language
A strings.xml file will like like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" standalone="yes"?>
