- AmigaBase uses the locale.library. So it is possible to display text
- in various languages. Currently AmigaBase supports the English, German,
- Swedish and Italian language.
-
- If you want AmigaBase to support your language, you have to edit the
- file AppStrings.source and translate it into your language.
- For each string you have to insert a line like this:
-
- /* Language-ID "Your translation" */
-
- where Language-ID is one of:
-
- D german
- DK danish
- E spanish
- F french
- GB english
- I italian
- N norwegian
- NL dutch
- P portuguese
- S swedish
-
- Put the translated strings just behind the originals.
-
- Then use MakeCat to build the locale file.
- MakeCat is PD. You find it on the german AmigaMagazin Disk 1, or from:
-
- PALADIN SOFTWARE
- Jakob-Bernhard-Straße 8

-
- Then you have to test your locale file. Please test every menu item
- of AmigaBase. In requesters no shortcut should be used twice.
- Umlauts or other non ascii characters are not allowed to be shortcuts.
-
- Please contact me before translating any text! Perhaps another person
- is translating the same text into the same language!
-
- If you think your locale file is ok, send me a copy of the
- AppStrings.source file.
- Then your language will be supported in the next release of AmigaBase.
-
- For translating AmigaBase into a new language I offer you a special
- registration fee of DM 20,-- (US $ 15,--).
