Hello,
for the win32 installer I want to find out the translated files and group them in specific language packs for further selection.
How can I look for a translation of a file ?
there is: ./HACKING.txt and ./HACKING_fr.txt and on the other side: tutorial-basic.svg and tutorial-basic.fr.svg
can I assume: -that the language identifier is always that from fr in fr.po -if there is a "special" translation pt_BR or sr@...428... then the tutorial bla.pt.svg or foo.sr.svg is assigned also to this language
Any other tricky stuff doing a separation of translation that I have not seen ?
Thanks for your comments.
Adib.

I agree the few README_?? and HACKING_??.txt should be renamed to README.??.txt and HACKING.??.txt for consistency. Just do it if noone complains within a few days.

Sounds like a good approach to me as well.

Now that README has changed to README.txt, automake complains about not having a file named plainly README, and autogen.sh fails. :-(

This is true. People should not mess with the 'standard' file names that the autotools want, like README, INSTALL, COPYING, AUTHORS, etc.

Right, this is also a required standard for GNU conformance iirc. As long as the renaming is limited to only the translated files, not the originals, we should be okay.
