I suppose it works for EUIV too ?

No it's not compatible with EU IV. Two interlinked reasons:
- EU IV localisation use yml files, not csv files
- Syntax is not the same : quotation marks and colons from yml files replace semi-colons from csv files.

But the good news is it is on my to-do list. :)

nice ! thank you^^
You're welcome

Nice, thanks.

Keep up the great work ! :)
 
Thank you for this.
Personally, I have added an additional colour (purple) to numbers.

Sure, adding colors is a possibility. For me, it doesn't make sense to add numbers here because they are not syntax.
Moreover, the more you add colors, the lesser the clarity of the syntax coloration


Is this compatible with Talias' userdefined CK2 language?
That tool seems a little outdated and there is a mistake as Talias added csv extension in his xml file. If I open a csv with Talias userdefined language i have a color syntax not appropriate at all. If you remove csv extension from his file, it should work (edit 'CK2lang.xml' and remove 'csv' from the first line).

I uploaded an updated version of talias' language with the csv extension removed, so they should be fully compatible now.
 
@zimxavier I have been using your mod Lingua Franca for a long time. I have started to play with Reaper'd due DLC (pre-purchase), I had to desactivate your mod, just to realized your work has been integrated by Paradox.

Thank you, you rock.

Thanks Paradox to offer the CK2 players a decent translation -- not only to take avantage of the CK2 game but push users to seek historical pieces of info to compare with CK2 (Frank Ferrand from Radio Europe 1 broadcasts from time to time about medieval history -- like the late Alain Decaux)
