[version 3.8] Yes, it's hard coded in the templates (*.tt -- example opac-main.tt, opac-results.tt, etc) in /usr/share/koha/opac/htdocs/opac-tmpl/prog/en/modules between 'doc-head-open.inc' and 'doc-head-close.inc'... I once edited all of these (we also prefer English English to US English), but you lose some|many|most of them on upgrades. And there's many more uses of the US spelling 'catalog' -- see your para 2. (below) "Library Catalog"
No, the default language is en-US which uses "catalog". In en-NZ it's catalogue, in nl it's catalogus, in fr it seems to also be catalogue. Koha handles all of this just fine, using the translation system.
Thanks Robin - I had never noticed that there were EN-GB files in 3.8 ;={ I've just read Paul P.'s comments in translator_doc.txt and <http://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/Installation_of_additional_languages_for_OPAC_and_INTRANET_staff_client#Adding_additional_languages_after_installing_Koha_on_your_server> and will try and find time to play with it in the sandbox. And, btw, I was certainly not recommending changing the hard coded templates -- after hours of grep + vi, I would not be that sadistic to other users. Thinking out loud, has anyone ever tried to set up a "language choice" option? Here in Canada we have two official languages (EN and FR), and it would be very neat to become bi-lingual in Koha. Best - Paul
The values aren't really hardcoded: they're in the file because that's where they go, but they are changed as needed when translations are updated.
If you're editing the templates to get custom or regional vocabulary, you are doing it wrong. Instead you should run a translation or develop your own based on the most appropriate for your library's wants.
