Localisable Parameters
Many procedures in the
jstools library take parameters or options that can be
localised. That means that the parameter, instead of being used or displayed
directly, is a key which is looked up in a naturallanguage database
corresponding to the user's preferred language, and the string
found there is used instead of the key itself. (Such strings
can also contain references to Tcl variables, preceded by `$', or the results of Tcl commands, enclosed in brackets, which
will be substituted in the caller's context before the string
is displayed.) These parameters are indicated by the word `localisable'
(in parentheses, as a link to this document) in the procedure
documentation.
If no string can be found in the database for a partiuclar key,
the key itself is used as a default, so generally you can ignore
the fact the a parameter is localisable if you want to.
