Functions

Localization: one strings/<locale>.toml per language, keys to strings. [locale] in project.toml sets the starting locale and the fallback; a key neither has comes back as itself.

6 functions, 0 constants. Scripts reach it as strings::.

Functions

Argument kinds are the script values a call passes: node is a node handle, any a table or value of any kind, fn a callback.

function	acts on	what it does
`locale()`	—	The locale in force.
`locales()`	—	Every locale the project ships a `strings/<locale>.toml` for, in name order.
`set_locale(locale: string)`	—	Switch locale; the next `tr` answers in it, which for a widget showing a key is the next frame.
`set_root(root: string)`	—	Read the catalogues from this directory instead of the project root, forgetting the ones already read; an empty string puts it back. For a host running a project other than its own: the editor, whose own root has no `strings/`, so without this every `text_key` in a played scene draws as its key.
`system_locale()`	—	The locale the operating system reports, like `en-US`, or nil when it says nothing; recorded with the session. A game picks its starting locale from it once and saves the choice.
`tr(key: string, args: table?)`	—	The string for a key in the current locale. `{name}` in it is replaced by the argument called `name`, and an `n` argument also picks the plural form the locale's language calls for.
