[Feature request] Internationalization (i18n) & localisation (l10n) & translation (t9n)

Open cravend opened this issue 3 years ago • 3 comments

When I first set out to study abroad, I knew it would be a life changing experience for me. Along the way I made new friends, tried new foods, and, most importantly: learned new languages.

As a result, I've decided to move on from my English-speaking past. I've successfully converted all of my personal stack to non-English except for one: this application.

My use case is: I use this script to fill my MOTD file (I call this as part of my pre-login RC file, I've found it really helps my oh-my-zsh loading times). Therefore, I get a personalised "Hello, world!" greeting when my terminal loads. However, I'd love to have this localized so that it greets me in non-English.

Surely there's some crate that lets us detect the computer's default language...

I've been informed by my eyes on the source code that this feature may exist, but you can't close this because I think my issue is better. Cheers!

yep, I won't close this because this is very important unlike other issues which makes fun of rust 😠 like #69
