Suggestions for the new install script :)
First commit introduces a check if msgfmt is availabe. If not it should cleanly abort the operation.
And the second one puts the installation process into nested for-loops. Which should avoid copy and paste operations (which can be error-prone) in the future.
Currently one behavioural change with this though. es will now be installed too. I assume this was excluded because it was only partially translated?

Else it will scale poorly if there are new plug-ins and languages.

Thanks.

I don't know enough about POSIX shells on different platforms. That is why I kept the script simple. If it doesn't work on Windows (and soon MacOS) I will get back to you ;)

Yes the es translations are just my crude tests. I suppose they are better than nothing, but not much better.

I doubt anyone will soon contribute new translations, but now you have made the script ready for them.
I suspect AI tools will take over the translations.
