1 <:catalog:> for message catalogs

<:catalog catname name:>

Loads a message catalog named catname into the local variable name. Once the catalog is loaded, you may use the <:msg:> (see section 7.2, page ) tag to access messages in the catalog.

The catalog name in catname is of the path to the message catalog (simple message catalogs have the extension .msg, complex, or multi-lingual ones have an .cat extension) , just like names for includes, components, and data components.

The equivalent Python code is:

import AE.Cache
name = AE.Cache.getMessageCatalog ( catname )
