Languages

The seven shipped languages, adding a language, and what every other UXM plugin needs for it.

Shipped

File	Language	Small capitals
`messages_en.conf`	English	yes
`messages_tr.conf`	Turkish	yes
`messages_de.conf`	German	yes
`messages_es.conf`	Spanish	yes
`messages_fr.conf`	French	yes
`messages_pt.conf`	Portuguese	yes
`messages_ru.conf`	Russian	no: Cyrillic has no small capitals

Every file carries every key.

Copy messages_en.conf to messages_<tag>.conf, such as messages_it.conf or messages_pt-BR.conf, and translate the values. Keep every key and every value tag such as <language>.
Name it and give it a flag in languages.conf.
Add the same file to every other UXM plugin you run, or they read their default for it.
/uxmlang reload. The language is in the window and /lang set takes it.

To draw a Latin-alphabet language in small capitals, add it to small-caps in theme.conf.
