The legend words, because those are formed by the reserved words of the plotvariables, have a language file entry, section [compiler]. If the users wishes to translate those (give another wording) he can find those terms in the language file under the section Compiler.
The legend of the compiler charts however may require some user action. Because the legend is formed by the reserved words of the plotvariables, some  of which may be created by the user, the descriptions of the legend may become somewhat incomprehensible for the unknown website user. Therefore, the legend descriptions get their own entries in the language file in the section compiler. You can use those entries for translation and/or change of description.

=== When using the CDL OUTPUT spec ===
For every OUTPUT specification in the definition file an output is created containing all charts defined from that point, including the chart on which it was defined.

#An output spec ''file1.txt'' for the first chart will create ''cumulusutilcharts.txt'' containing the first chart and a ''file1.txt'' also containing the first chart but also the subsequent charts.
#An output spec ''file1.txt'' for the first chart will create ''cumuluscharts.txt'' containing the first chart and a ''file1.txt'' also containing the first chart but also the subsequent charts.
#An output spec ''file2.txt'' for the third chart will create chart 1 and 2 in ''file1.txt'' and chart 3 in ''file2.txt''.
#An output spec ''file2.txt'' for the third chart will create chart 1 and 2 in ''file1.txt'' and chart 3 in ''file2.txt''.
#An output spec ''file3.txt'' for the last and eighth chart will create chart 3,4,5,6,7 in ''file2.txt'' and chart 8 in ''file3.txt''
#An output spec ''file3.txt'' for the last and eighth chart will create chart 3,4,5,6,7 in ''file2.txt'' and chart 8 in ''file3.txt''
