Description
Hi

I've made a script that will add [CASTE_NAME] tags with male and female variants of names for all vanilla (and possibly also modded) creatures. It works by first looking at the [NAME] tag to extract the actuall names of the creatures, and then appending [CASTE_NAME] definitions in [CASTE:FEMALE] and [CASTE:MALE] (other castes are not changed). The new name is simply "oldname male" or "oldname female" (so "dog male", "dog female", "horse male"...).

The use of this is, it helps you to differentiate between genders on screens that do not show gender. Some of those include z->animals, cage/rope assign menu, pit menu, units screen, and probably some more. This will increase your selective breeding program productivity by 1000% guaranteed :)

The script is written for unix bash system, which I'm sure some of you are familiar with. Even if you can't code/use it, it's very simple (this tutorial is for a unix/linux/macos machine -- windows users, I'm sorry, you'll have to ask your nix friend)
