<title>Translations</title>
<section>
<para>
The &opie;-Project tries to offer the support for as many languages
as possible. In this chapter the process of translating &opie; and its
documentation is explained.
</para>
<para>
To ensure that &opie; can be used by as many people as possible the
&opie;-project aims to be translated in as many languages as possible. Of
course, as there are so many different languages, there is always a lot
work to do. Furthermore, &opie; evolves and thus most likely there are
translations for applications which should be updated. In this tutorial
you will learn how to help &opie; to be available in as many languages as
possible and see how easy it is to give something very much respected to
the open-source community.

<title>Preferences</title>
<para>
In order to translate for &opie; you need an editor to edit the
translationfile and preferably access to cvs. The preferred editor
is Linguist. That is an application which comes with &qt;. It has a
intuitive GUI and is very easy to use. A tutorial can be found <ulink
url="http://doc.trolltech.com/3.1/linguist-manual-3.html">here</ulink>.
</para>
<para>
However, you can use every editor which works with UTF8, for example VIM or
EMACS. The advantage of Linguist is that its GUI is optimized for &opie;s
translationfiles and can help you by proposing a translation and notice
you if there is an error within the translation.
</para>
<para>
CVS is a tool which the developers and most translators use to get the source
of &opie;. If you already have an anonymous account for the &opie;-cvs you
should go to <filename class='directory'>OPIEDIR/i18n</filename> and do
<programlisting>cvs up</programlisting>. If there is already a translation for the language you would like to
translate you will see the language code in that directory. For example,
for german this is <programlisting>de</programlisting> and for danish it is
<programlisting>da</programlisting>. If not, you should contact the coordinator
<personname><firstname>Carsten</firstname><surname>Niehaus</surname></personname>
so that everything will be set up for your language.
