- How to do the translations
- ==========================
-
- At first thank you that you will take some time to help me.
- Currently the translation consists of three parts. You don't need to translate
- all three. I am happy with every bit.
-
- Important. If you want to do some translations, please contact me before. This
- is to avoid doing something twice !
-
- If you have done it, pack them all together (lha/lzx/zip) and send them to me.
- I'll then include your name in the list, who has helped me and if you are not
- registered yet, I'll offer you a discount (-50% if you translate all three
- parts). Remember - who comes first gets it first.
-
- Catalogs
- --------
-
- 1. Open the file SoundFX.ct into your favourite texteditor and save it under
- <your-language>.ct.
-
- 2. Fill in the first two lines, so that they look like below
-
- ## version $VER: SoundFX/Deutsch.ct 1.0 (12.03.1998)
- ## language deutsch
-
- 3. Translate the messages, which starts with a ';' and a tab. Type the trans-
- lated message into the blank line. Please leave that english message there.
- It is just a comment, which helps me see what is what.
- Here is an example how it looks before (just some lines) :
- :
- :
- ; Can't open file !
- errOpenFile
-
- ;Can't open file !
- ;
- ; Can't open library !
- errOpenLibrary
-
- ;
- :
- :
-
- Afterwards it should look like this :
- :
- :
- ; Can't open file !
- errOpenFile
- Kann Datei nicht öffnen !
- ;Can't open file !
- ;
- ; Can't open library !
- errOpenLibrary
- Kann Bibliothek nicht öffnen !

- Installer-Texts
- ---------------
-
- 1. Open the file Install-SFX.txt into your texteditor.
- 2. Cut out the block you want to translate or update.
-
- Update
- 3. Look for comments ';NEW'. Translate those lines inbetween and remove the
- comments
- 4. Look for comments ';CHANGE'. There you will find the original lines
- commented and new lines, which are possibly already translated by me. Make
- sure that the translations are correct and remove the comments (and the old
- translations)
-
- New
- 3. Replace the name of the language in the line
- (IF (= @LANGUAGE "<your language>")
- 4. Translate in each line the text between the '"'. ignore those sequences like
- '\n' - just keep them as they are.
-
- 5. Save it as "Install-SFX.<your-language>.txt"
-
- Orderform
- ---------
-
- Just translate all the texts and save it as
- "Orderform.<your-language>.txt"
- -> e.g. Orderform.español.txt
- or better translate the word "Orderform" as well and save it under
- "<whater-ever-orderform-is-called-in-your-language>.txt"
- -> e.g. Bestellformular.txt
- Thats.it.
