fix the resources problem ( optional ) ( fix by kusznier )

1. go to XVoard source code by cd ~/XVoard/res/raw get the URL of the language you want to install at /XVoard/res/raw/metadata.json and search for the language ISO code ( for example ru-RE for russia russian )
2. use wget -O NameOfDictFile "https://thelanguageURL.dict" at ~/XVoard/res/raw ( example wget -O ru-ru_d3_2024040900_shmx8-l_r8yss4ohmain.dict "https://www.gstatic.com/android/keyboard/dictionarypack/prod/ru-ru_d3_2024040900_shmx8-l_r8yss4ohmain.dict" )
3. after you get the .dict file you need , go to ~/XVoard/res/values/arrays.xml to line 467 and right below it write <item>ISO-CODE</item> ( for example <item>ru-ru</item> , keep in mind that the ru-ru is used as an example only make you sure you put the actual ISO code of your language )
4. rename your .dict file to ISO-CODE_d3.dict (for example ru-ru_d3.dict )
5. at ~/XVoard/res/values/arrays.xml go to line 474 under it write `@raw/ISO-CODE_d3 ( for example @raw/ru-ru_d3 )
6. at the metadata.json you will find a tag "version": VersionNumber, . copy that VersionNumber from your selected language and go to ~/XVoard/res/values/arrays.xml again at line 481 underneath it type <item>VersionNumber</item> ( for example 2024040900 )
7. now go to ~/XVoard/apktool.yml to line 78 and type - res/raw/nameOfTheDictFile.dict ( example - res/raw/ru-ru_d3.dict )

QUICK REMINDER

this method works only for Linux at computers , if you really need it please use a virtual machine or termux app

and here we go you are done , keep in mind the ru-ru ( russia russian ) is used just as an example you have to replace it , and also XVoard already includes US English, Algerian Arabic, Spanish (Spain), and French (France) by default
