PitBull Unit Frames 4.0 - WoW AddOns

PitBull4 is a continuation of PitBull.

It is currently experimental.

Differences from PitBull 3:

It's not done
Documentation is written before functions
Much easier for third-party extensions.
Options will be much, much simpler. In 3.0, there's about 200 panels that you can mess with, it's overwhelming. I want to bring this down to somewhere around 10.
- Layouts are defined deterministically and unit groups use the layout rather than ad-hoc layouts on a per-unit basis. This will make setting up your unit frames far, far easier.
- Due to some decisions made, 4.0 is actually more configurable than 3.0. As a layout designer, you will have a lot more control over how things look. You can have different fonts on the same frame, different textures, more precise positioning, and a whole slough of other things.
CPU Efficiency will be taken much more seriously.
It uses Ace3 instead of Rock.

There isn't a difference in look (except what's not yet completed, like auras), the difference is under the hood, and in the configuration/options. The idea is to be able to do everything pb3 did, except easier to configure, and use less resources.

Thanks for finishing my translation, I like how everything is working. However, in some cases capital letters are missing. I tried fixing it, but nothing changed :\ It looks just bad. Is it fixable?

Spent a few hours with this last night running right beside Pitbull3, It's amazing for an alpha so far, I've disabled PB3 and took the time to setup this to match the PB3 config I had and will be using it at raid tonight. I'll report back any issues I see.
Thanks CKK for yet another amazing addon :D

Great, translators. I made the localization app (Using PitBull4 to test it, hehe), so your comments are appreciated. If you find any issues or have any suggestions with it, go to http://www.curseforge.com/projects/cu.../tickets/.
