Summary0004831: Translation/altering hard coded messages
DescriptionIt would be nice to extract all hard coded messages/errors from source code (m_message.c, s_err.c, etc.) and to be able to translate or alter them using config files without touching source code.

For example, we needed to add more information and URL with detailed explanation for users when introducing registered users-only communication and had to manually change source code to alter the following messages:

"You must have a registered nick (+r) to talk on this channel"
"You must identify to a registered nick to private message %s"
TagsNo tags attached.

I could leave this open forever but the truth is that this is not planned. (It has been discussed a couple of times in the past 20 years)
So, closing this issue.
