69    Internationalization: Help on Translations !
70    ============================================
71    
72    You want to help us translating gigedit into a language you speak? Good!
73    This is how it works:
74    
75        Updating an existing translation (at the moment only Swedish and German):
76        -------------------------------------------------------------------------
77    
78        First collect all text from gigedit's current C++ source code, by typing
79        the following:
80    
81        cd po
82        make update-po
83    
84        The language source files (de.po, sv.po, ...) are now updated and you may
85        open one of it now either with a text editor of your choice or better: by
86        using the graphical translation tool "poedit":
87    
88        poedit de.po
89    
90    
91        Add a new translation (for another language not yet supported):
92        ---------------------------------------------------------------
93    
94        First collect all text from gigedit's current C++ source code, by typing
95        the following:
96    
97        cd po
98        make update-po
99    
100        There should now be a yet untranslated file "gigedit.pot". Rename it to
101        to the language you want to translate, i.e.:
102    
103        mv gigedit.pot ru.po
104    
105        Now either open the file ("ru.po") with a text editor of your choice or
106        better: by using the graphical translation tool "poedit":
107    
108        poedit ru.po
109    
110    After you are done with translating the language file, please send it to us!
