First of all, thanks to everyone who has translated Typeface. If your
language is not here, and you would like to do the translation, you can
easily make a suitable catalog file.
To create a language catalog for Typeface, you will first need the program
"FlexCat", available from Aminet. FlexCat was used to generate the
localized source for Typeface.
To make a catalog, you need to generate a catalog translation file for your
language from the supplied catalog description file, "Typeface.cd". For
example:
FlexCat Typeface.cd NEWCTFILE=Typeface.ct
This will generate a catalog translation file called "Typeface.ct". Load
this file into your editor, and where it says "##language", add the
language of the translation, e.g.:
##language deutsch
for a german catalog. Below you will find a description of all the texts
which can be localized. For example, the first is the string "Continue":
; Continue operation choice. <- A comment.
msgContinue <- The identifier-don't change it!
CONTINUE <- Space for translation
;Continue <- English text for reference
Fill in the translation for all the strings (shown in the above example by
the capitalized text), then run FlexCat again to generate the catalog, for
example:
FlexCat Typeface.cd Typeface.ct CATALOG=Typeface.catalog
The file Typeface.catalog can now be used by moving it to the appropriate
location; for example for german, this would be
LOCALE:catalogs/deutsch/Typeface.catalog
