A New "Description" GDL command... like "Values"...

It would be great if we have a new "Description" GDL command like "Values"... It would define the description of a parameter... Useful for multi language objects.
Like:

IF lang = "English" THEN DESCRIPTION "MyParameter" "I speak english"
IF lang = "French" THEN DESCRIPTION "MyParameter" "Je parle français"
IF lang = "Portuguese" THEN DESCRIPTION "MyParameter" "Eu falo português"

I know it can be done with the UI... But its a must to have this available in parameter definition...

It can be done by UI but also by multiplying the parameters...and - language value would hide the not needed ones (but hideparameter must be applied in master script not the parameters script so to be executed along with the glob_modpar_name)
Painfull but possible.

Hi Piotr,

Actually I was thinking about creating a special set of UI_OUTFIELD (static text) for each language describing one parameter (UI_INFIELD).
...But sometimes creating a UI for simple objects is too much...
