==================
The new motif-gui version has i18n support, it is handled by using
different application default files for the different languages. All
the strings are in the MoTV-<lang> files. MoTV-default is the english
version. MoTV-fixed has the other (language-independant) app-default
settings. The Makefile merges these into MoTV.<lang>.ad files.
To add another language you just need to create a new MoTV-<lang>
file, edit x11/Subdir.mk and add the language to the LANGUAGES= line.
You can test the translations without "make install" this way (bash):
once at start:
$ cd x11
$ export XUSERFILESEARCHPATH="./%N.%l.ad:./%N.ad"
$ export LC_ALL=<lang>
every time after editing MoTV-<lang>:
$ make
$ ./motv
translate documentation
=======================
The applications come with a manual page as documentation. Most manual
pages are in the man/ subdirectory. Translated manual pages are very
welcome, I can easily add them to the distribution tarball. It is a
good idea to add your email address to the translated page, so people
can reach you directly with spell fixes and stuff like that. I can't
proof-read pages in foreign languages ...
other stuff
===========
Currently I have no plans to localize xawtv and the command line tools.
