TransGaming Point2Play Translation HowTo 1.1 ============================================ Point2Play can now be localized. If you would like to volunteer a translation to your native language, we would much appreciate it! If accepted you will have your name listed in the Point2Play credits, as well as the appreciation of other Point2Play users who share your mother tongue. To translate: 1) Make a copy of the file /usr/lib/transgaming_point2play/p2p_localized_msg.po 2) Edit the file in your editor of choice (be sure it saves to UTF8 format). Enter the translated equivalent below each English phrase listed. To test your translation: 1) When completed, run the file through msgfmt: msgfmt p2p_localized_msg.po This will create a file called messages or messages.mo (depending on your build of msgfmt) - assuming there are no errors. 2) Create a directory structure like the following, replacing 'de' with your language's 2 letter locale code: /usr/lib/transgaming_point2play/locale/de/LC_MESSAGES Rename the messages (or messages.mo) file to p2p_localized_msg.mo and copy it into /usr/lib/transgaming_point2play/locale//LC_MESSAGES 3) Set up the following environment variables: export LANG= export LC_MESSAGES= and then start Point2Play as normal. You should now have Point2Play in your native language. Please submit a gzipped translation file (gzip p2p_localized_msg.po) or any questions to the WineX development mailing winex-devel@lists.transgaming.org. Be sure to include how you want to be credited inside Point2Play.
