The main library is still in english (fmod.e).
Sorry, I made you confused.
For information, the indonesian-named procedures are for
simplifying things
- tl() = tulis() = write() = print any object to screen
- tln() = tulisn() = writen() = print any object to screen, add new line
- isist() = isi_string() = fill_in_string() = ask user to input a string with
prompt
Sorry I don't understand this phrase's meaning in english:
"I tend to pick up on the language, and it becomes somewhat easier to read."
= what is the meaning of "pick up" here?

In my opinion, my reasons of using my native language are:
- better understand the meaning
- Indonesian uses latin character and only A-Z is used,
no accents or extended ascii
- no conflict with internal keywords
(usually I use "ke" which means "to",
I cannot use "to" for a variable name because it is a keyword)..
Derek are you studying Indonesian?

"pick up on" means to "begin to understand" or "understand parts of" as I
read through your code, I begin to realize that tl() is write() and tln()
performs write() with '\n' on the end.

No, but I did a quick introduction course to the language before I started
making trips to Malayasia and Borneo. Also, Bahasa is a very common language
taught in Australian schools. It used to be that the only languages usually
taught were the European ones - mainly French and German. But in the last
twenty or so years, Asian languages are more dominant - mainly Japanese,
Bahasa and Mandarin.
