HOWTO Create a new translation ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ At first you need to create a new .po file for your language with make_po.sh $cd languages $./make_po.sh This creates cactus.po The .po filename should be from type 'cactus.language.po' where language is the abbreviation for your language. i.e. en - englisch de - german fr - french gr - greece ... type $ mv cactus.po cactus.yourlanguage.po Now open this file with a text editor. It contains many entries like this one: #: mp3:rsquit msgid "Quit" msgstr "" All you have to do is to write the translation of the word after 'msgid' into the quotes after 'msgstr' Afterwards save the .po file as utf8-encoded text. If you want to test the translated strings you have to create a binary .mo file from the .po file. This is done by $msgfmt cactus.yourlanguage.po -o cactus.yourlanguage.mo If the .mo file is in the Cactus jukebox 'languages' directory it should now be chooseable from the settings menu. (If you have installed from rpm/deb package the folder is at /usr/share/cactusjukebox/languages) That's all! Please send the translated .po(!) file to the author at sebastian_kraft*AT*gmx.de, and he will include it as soon as possible. Thanks in advance for your contribution!
