+ *  tags like {BLACK}, {STRING1} etc. The name given to this string is made
+ *  available to you in ScriptText, for example: ScriptText.STR_NEWS, if your
+ *  english.txt contains: STR_NEWS    :{BLACK}Welcome {COMPANY}!
+ *
+ * In translation files like lang/dutch.txt you can then translate such
+ *  strings, like: STR_NEWS    :{BLACK}Hallo {COMPANY}!
+ * When the user has the dutch language selected, it will automatically use
+ *  the translated string when available. The fallback language is always
+ *  the english language.
+ *
+ * If you use parameters in your strings, you will have to define those
+ *  parameters, for example like this:
+ * local text = ScriptText(ScriptText.STR_NEWS); text.AddParam(1);
+ * This will set the {COMPANY} to the name of Company 1.
