This module is deprecated in favour of the much more useful Localization update.

The core translation module provides an additional option for the importing of module and theme translations for Drupal core.

As of Drupal 6, contributed modules and themes include translations with the downloaded or checked out version of the module. However, for Drupal core, translations are not part of the Drupal core distribution.

The standard way to use core translations (see this handbook page) is:

• Download a translation
• Extract the translation download into the Drupal root directory. This puts the translation files into their correct directories. (E.g., a translation for node module will be in modules/node/translations).

From here, the translations will be used like contrib translations that come with the module downloads.

In some cases, however, site administrators may prefer to be able to retain translations in their own directory rather than extracting them into the Drupal root directory. This might be true e.g. if a site is being deployed through CVS. Core translation import enables this use.

To use:

The Format Number API module provides a method to configure number formats (site default and user defined) with configurable decimal point and thousand separators.

This module also provides the 'numericfield' Forms API element, which is a right aligned text input element that allows the user enter numbers using the configured thousands separator and decimal point (site default or user defined). This Forms API element provides a validation callback that is used automatically and that ensures input is valid numeric as per the options defined for the element.

Several functions are exposed by the module that can be used by other contributed or custom modules to display numbers accordingly, from PHP and JavaScript as well. For further information, please see the README.txt.

The modules list page can become quite big when dealing with a fairly large site or even just a dev site meant for testing new and various modules being considered.

JSpec is an extremely light BDD framework aimed at a simple, logical syntax with nearly no learning curve.

BlockTools provides a simple programatic interface for retrieving individual blocks from the block system while retaining Drupal's block caching mechanism. Additionally, BlockTools provides per block caching that can be configured through each block's configuration form.

This module will add Transcriptions (or Closed Captioning) to video and audio files. It will also integrate with Media Player, YouTube API, Asset, and Embedded Media Field.
