language menu with flags and text

I have to build a template with a language menu, which has to show the flags and text at the same time. Therefore I added a parameter to the "lang"-Tag and did some changes to the file "function.lang.php". The file and my config_lang.php are attached (remove the ending ".txt").
Otherwise thanks for the great work on CMSms MLE. I use this version now for two projects.

I don't understand very well this case, I see that you have:
FLAG-EN Please select your language! | FLAG-DE Bitte wählen Sie Ihre Sprache! | FLAG-NL Kies Uw taal! ......
I see better an ajaxy text rotation (with all languages) type: [lang text rotation] FLAG-EN | FLAG-DE | FLAG-NL .......
but this is a my idea ....

Sure, this would make even more sense. My case is a customer requirement, the design was already there (see attachment).

- in
plugins/ folder, edit
function.lang.php
- search this:
$link = ($text)?$mle['text']:$mle['flag']; (3 statements)
- change in (for: [FLAG IMAGE] Text of language):
$link = ($text)?$mle['flag'].' '.$mle['text']:$mle['flag'];
- active with {lang
text=true spacer="|"}
