This patch adds much needed pirate-isms into Drupal, yar. So far it only includes two changes....

  1. Replaces instances of "you" with "yar".
  2. Replaces "Administer" with "Administarrrrr, avast".

Here is a screenshot. I believe there is much more we can improve with bringing Pirate into Drupal core. Ideas and patches welcome.............

Thanks for taking the initiative on this much needed feature Rob. After reviewing the patch I have a few comments:

  • Can we get "Administarrrrr, avast" renamed to "Captains Quarters". I think this would add more clarity for the crew
  • I don't seem to see any references to rum or grog, was this a mistake?
  • I think an informative help message about the dangers of scurvy on the high seas would be a fantastic addition to the default page

Other than that, this is looking great.

Sorry, to late for Drupal 7 - lets make this more awsome so it can get into Drupal 8.

I really hope the patch will not really get in Drupal 8.

Guys. Put the following into http://drupal.org/project/pirate

function pirate_element_info_alter(&$types) {
  foreach ($types as $type => &$info) {
    if ($type != 'ajax') {
      $info['#post_render'][] = 'pirate_element_post_render';
    }
  }
}

function pirate_element_post_render($string, $element) {
  $string = strtr($string, array(
    'you' => 'yarr',
    // ...
  ));
  return $string;
}
