[Fenrir]

I'm trying to make it so my brother can play DF, but he can't do that until all innuendo and profanity has been purged from the language files. Damn there a lot of words! Has anyone already done this?

[Jay]

You're going to have a hard time.
Although you could just cull all the "bad" symbols in all the entities rather then remove the words physically...
Might make it easier.

[Fenrir]

Yeah, I've got a bit of work to do. I'm fairly certain that my mother would object to all the potentially suggestive words too, so that's a bunch more that have to go. I don't care what I have to do, my brother will not be denied Dwarf Fortress!

[Jay]

On a bit of an offtopic note until someone with some more language-modding experience comes along..
Are you the Fenrir that vanished so many months ago?

[Fenrir]

I am that Fenrir.

Removing the words from language_words.txt seems to be sufficent, I don't think I have to remove them from the translation or symbols files. What a relief!

[Untelligent]

If you're fairly certain he won't be looking at the actual language files, you can simply add the [CULL_SYMBOL:ALL:UNTOWARD] token to all the entities, which prevents them from using any of the more "vulgar" words.
