Re: localised typography for Textile

OK, I just had a go at this.
I used a copy of en-gb.txt as I want to keep the interface in English and then modified the relevant lines to use Icelandic quote marks:

txt_quote_double_close => “
txt_quote_double_open => „

… but it didn’t have any effect. Textile still converts straight quotes to English-style quotes. The lang file was saved and uploaded as utf-8.

Why doesn’t it work?

Re: localised typography for Textile

I think you have to edit classTextile.php in the /lib directory.

Re: localised typography for Textile

Fantastic Ruud, that did the trick – thanks very much! :-)

Now I only wonder, what’s the purpose of these entries in the lang file, if they don’t have an effect?

Re: localised typography for Textile

gTxt("txt_quote_double_close"), that’s why. Language files have no efect to the user’s output nor Textile, but it do change how lang-strings are shown. But I don’t have no clue where those quotes are used.

I see, I misunderstood what it’s for and got unduly excited,… wouldn’t be the first time. ;-)
