"Manual" translating

[matjazp]

I don't have experience with ML, so forgive a noob question. Is it possible to translate strings in some .module files without installing LanguageSupport and based on some criteria? Something like that (pseudocode):

if user has some role, then translate ProcessPageEdit module using my translation file

why don't you want to install LanguageSupport?

I'm using PagePaths module: "Currently supports only single languages sites."? Or I misunderstand this statement?

I guess the LanguageSupport module won't make a site multilanguage (but I could be wrong). I would try installing it without adding any extra languages and see if PagePaths module still works as expected.

Even if you have multilang enabled you can setup templates to only be single-language. Then all the fields will only have ONE inputfield (ONE language). All the field labels will have the user's corresponding translations. And there will also be only ONE path for each page, so I guess it will work with page-paths-module.

Just try it out. I guess doing a translation mess with custom if/else hooking crazyness will be worse ?
