The new branch 'game_intllib' is aiming at MT internationalization.
Please note the about 400 lines of code changed in the Lua code of the
existing mods by addition of a S("string") enclosure for GNU gettext.
This is in compliance to the GNU gettext toolchain procedures.
'game_intllib' is an attempt at providing internationalization support
for the default game mods specifically. Hopefully, we may delay the
issue of an optimal translation for the MT server into the future.
There is no requirement to include the 'game_intllib' mod into the
game code basis if an alternative solution for a translation of
user-facing strings of the default mods inside the game is in place.
However, the 'game_intllib' and tools may be helpful in assisting the
task of translation of user-facing strings of the default mods prior
a new release of the game and after introduction of new game code.
Please consider to look at my contribution in the MT forum:
https://forum.minetest.net/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=4929&p=346791#p346791
This is up to deliberations of the MT developers and the MT game devs.

*****************
The 'game_intllib' internal mod is specifially aimed at default mods
internal to the game in the 'minetest_game' folder.
The original 'intllib' is an attempt at providing internationalization
support for external mods (something Minetest currently lacks).
IMHO the 'intllib' mod is a reliable and helpful tool and I have found
it to be both robust and compliant to the GNU gettext tool chain.
I would like to thank all of the MT developers and certainly @kaeza.

Currently all minetest_game PR's are failing travis since the
upstream luacheck now also warns about whitespace issues, and
there are a few of those in the code. This fixes all of them
so we can yet again rely on luacheck.
Part 1: All mods except default and xpanes.
Add license.txt files.
Add missing README.txt files.
Check and update copyright years for all contributors.
Improve text format and make more consistent.
- Global functions sethome.set(name, pos) , sethome.get(name) and sethome.go(name)
- Tidy: trim coords to one decimal place and write to table and output table in one go.
- Add error checking
- Add t4im's homepos loader
