Localized data lives in the locale directory. Each language stores its localized keys in a <u>separate</u> directory named for the language's ISO code. Localized keys from the 'activity.info' file are stored in the 'activity.linfo' files in that directory. For example, German-localized German (as opposed to Swiss-localized German) language translations are stored in the 'de_DE/activity.linfo' file:

activity.linfo

At this time, only translations for the 'name' ~~key~~ from the 'activity.info' file is supported. A localized 'de_DE/activity.linfo' file would look like:

At this time, only translations for the 'name' and 'tags' keys from the 'activity.info' file is supported. A localized 'de_DE/activity.linfo' file would look like:

[Activity]

name = Web

tags = erforschung;web

Keys in the languague-specific '.linfo' files selectively override keys from the 'activity.info' file; if a key is not present in the '.linfo' file the value from the 'activity.info' file is used instead.
