Also, we should automatically create the new auth_xxx.php lang files for all languages - that should be an easy script to write. Much more sensible that translators for 80 different languages doing it manually.

Assigning to Sam.

But yes, creating all the auth_xxx.php files in all lang packs would be a good idea for all those non-English users.

And we need to keep ALL strings in auth.php for compat with 1.8, old 1.9 etc ...

1. Copy any strings defined in auth_*.php that are not in auth.php into auth.php
2. Create auth_*.php files if they don't already exist based on the files in en_utf8
3. Copy module specific strings from auth.php to auth_module.php files based on the strings as they exist in en_utf8

This ensures that all language packs have a language file for all auth plugins, and that all auth strings are duplicated in auth.php to ensure backwards compatibility.

If someone could please have a look at the patch just to make sure everything is OK. I've also attached the script I used encase anyone in the future needs to do something similar.

Cheers all
Sam

I recommend building up the files in arrays and then using the lang_save_file() function to save them into files. Gives you a shorter script too.

A look at admin/lang.php could be useful too.
