[TYPO3-dev] Some language issues in editing icons

Hi Tapio,

extdeveval is an extension. You install it and then you will find a 
developers' toolbar in the top part of your TYPO3 backend. And also you 
will find the module 'ExtDevEval' in the tools section.

There you will find a dropdown menu where you choose 'Convert 
locallang.php files to XML format'.

Then choose your extension, then the file... voilà! :)

Depends on which charset you use. We ran into problems when using UTF-8 
in case you also write the locallang.php in UTF-8. Whilst locallang.php 
in LATIN worked out fine. But in my opinion in general the locallang.xml 
is to prefer as you have meta information such as charset etc.

locallang.xml has priority in case both exist.

Regards,
Jochen
