- $ This file is to specify special formatting characteristics of a
- $ language. It defines which characters of the language can not end a
- $ line of text, begin a line of text or whether to replace internal
- $ newlines with spaces.
- $ This file is ONLY necessary for languages with MULTIBYTE character
- $ sets. For single byte character sets (I.E. English, German, French,
- $ etc.), the system has a built in default list of characters that can
- $ not begin and end a line. For single byte languages, the system will
- $ also always replace newlines with spaces.
- $
- $ This table is for <???>
- $
- $ message #1 indicates the list of 2byte punctuation, special characters
- $ and double consonants that cannot start a line.
- $
- $quote "
- 1 "<situar lista aquí>"
- $
- $ message #2 indicates the list of 2byte punctuation, special characters
- $ and double consonants that cannot end a line.
- $
- 2 "<situar lista aquí>"
- $
- $ message #3 indicates whether the language wants all end-of-lines in
- $ text to be changed into spaces. I.E. in english if you had
- $
- $ 'the quick brown fox'
- $ 'jumps over the lazy dog'
- $
- $ would be output as 'the quick brown fox jumps....'. If this was
- $ translated into Japanese but leaving the break where it appeared in the
- $ sentence, the newline between 'fox' and 'jumps' would be compressed out
- $ and no space would be put between the two words. But if 'fox' was in
- $ Japanese and 'jump' was in english, the newline would be turned into a
- $ space. The same (newline -> space) would occur if 'fox' was in english
- $ and 'jumps' was in Japanese.
- $
- $ Therefore, the values for message #3 should be
- $ 1 - means that newlines are always turned into spaces.
- $ 0 - means that newlines are turned into space only if they
- $ occur between a multibyte character and a single byte
- $ character.
- $ Example:
- $ For Japanese, the 'value' of message #3 would be '0'
- $
- 3 "1"
