Description : simple interface to Locale::Maketext::Lexicon
Locale::Maketext::Simple is a simple wrapper around
Locale::Maketext::Lexicon, designed to alleviate the need of creating
Language Classes for module authors.
The language used is chosen from the loc_lang call. If a lookup is not
possible, the i-default language will be used. If the lookup is not in the
i-default language, then the key will be returned.
If Locale::Maketext::Lexicon is not present, it implements a minimal
localization function by simply interpolating [_1] with the first argument,
[_2] with the second, etc. Interpolated function like [quant,_1] are treated
as [_1], with the sole exception of [tense,_1,X], which will append ing to _1
when X is present, or appending ed to <_1> otherwise.
Please note that Locale::Maketext::Simple is also in perl core. You need to
install this package only if you need a newer version than what currently is
in perl-modules.
