-Internationalization Lib for Minetest
+#Internationalization Lib for Minetest
 By Diego Martínez (a.k.a. "Kaeza").
 Released as WTFPL.
 
 This mod is an attempt at providing internationalization support for mods
 (something Minetest currently lacks).

 You will also need to optionally depend on intllib, to do so add "intllib?" to
 a empty line in your depends.txt. Also note that if intllib is not installed,
 the S() function is defined so it returns the string unchanged. This is done

 Next, for each "translatable" string in your sources, use the S() function

 Since there's currently no portable way to detect the language, this library
 tries several alternatives, and uses the first one found:
-  - `language' setting in `minetest.conf'
-  - `LANG' environment variable (this is always set on Unix-like OSes).
-  - Default of "en".
