15 the bin directory created from the gettext/libiconv packages. |
| 7 | 16 |
| 17 First read the README.txt file in this directory for general remarks on | |
| 18 translating Vim messages. | |
| 19 | |
| 20 | |
| 21 SETUP | |
| 22 | |
| 1121 | 23 Set the environment variable LANGUAGE to the language code for the language |
| 24 you are translating Vim messages to. Language codes are typically two | |
| 25 characters and you can find a list of them at: | |
| 7 | 26 |
| 27 http://www.geocities.com/click2speak/languages.html | |
| 28 | |
| 1121 | 29 Another possibility is to use the gnuwin32 port of gettext. This is |
| 30 recommended especially if you use already gnuwin32 tools to gunzip, bunzip, | |
| 31 patch etc. these files. You find the gnuwin32 version of gettext here: | |
| 32 | |
| 33 http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/gettext.htm | |
| 34 | |
| 35 Yet another very strait forward way is to get the sources of gettext from | |
| 36 | |
| 37 http://www.gnu.org/software/gettext/gettext.html | |
| 38 | |
| 39 and build your own version of these tools. The documentation states that this | |
| 40 should be possible with MSVC4.0, MSVC5.0, MSVC6.0 or MSVC7.0, but you can | |
| 41 build it even successfully with MSVC8.0. | |
| 42 | |
| 7 | 43 The LANGUAGE environment variable can be set from the command line, by adding |
| 44 a line to your autoexec.bat file, or by defining a user variable from the | |
| 45 Advanced tab in the System control panel. | |
| 46 | |
| 47 Next, edit Make_mvc.mak so that GETTEXT_PATH points the binary directory of | |
| 1121 | 48 the installation. |
| 7 | 49 |
| 50 | |
| 51 CREATING A NEW TRANSLATION | |
| 52 | |
| 53 When creating a new translation you must add your language code to the | |
| 54 Make_mvc.mak file in the lines defining LANGUAGES and MOFILES. To create the | |
| 55 initial .po file for your language you must use the command: | |
| 56 | |
| 57 make -f make_mvc.mak first_time | |
| 58 | |
| 59 Note: You need to be in the po directory when using this makefile. | |
| 60 | |
| 61 Once you have your new .po file load it into Vim and source cleanup.vim, this | |
| 62 will convert untranslated messages to comments. If you have syntax | |
| 63 highlighting turned on then untranslated messages will stand out more easily. | |
| 64 | |
| 65 You will also need to edit the file names in the comments in the .po file. | |
| 66 You need to remove the absolute directory specification (which has the form | |
| 67 c:\vim61\src\). You can do this in Vim with the following command with the | |
| 1121 | 68 appropriate directory specification for where you have installed the Vim |
| 7 | 69 source: |
| 70 | |
| 71 %s/c:\\vim61\\src\\//g | |
| 72 | |
| 73 | |
| 74 UPDATING A TRANSLATION | |
| 75 | |
| 76 If there are new or changed messages in Vim that need translating, then the | |
| 77 first thing to do is merge them into the existing translations. This is done | |
| 78 with the following command: | |
| 79 | |
| 80 nmake -f Make_mvc.mak xx.po | |
| 81 | |
| 1121 | 82 where xx is the language code for the language needing translations. The |
| 7 | 83 original .po file is copied to xx.po.orig. |
| 84 | |
| 85 | |
| 86 DOING THE TRANSLATION | |
| 87 | |
| 88 Now that you have a .po file you can do the translations for all messages that | |
| 89 need it. See README.txt for specific instructions. | |
| 90 | |
| 91 Once you have finished translating the messages you should make sure all | |
| 92 non-translated strings are commented out. This can be done by sourcing | |
| 93 cleanup.vim once again. | |
| 94 | |
| 95 | |
| 96 CHECKING THE TRANSLATION | |
| 97 | |
| 98 Check the translation with the following command: | |
| 99 | |
| 100 nmake -f make_mvc.mak xx.mo | |
| 101 | |
| 102 Correct any syntax errors reported. When there are no more errors, the | |
| 103 translation is ready to be installed. | |
| 104 | |
| 105 | |
| 106 INSTALLING THE TRANSLATION | |
| 107 | |
| 108 Install your translation with the following command: | |
| 109 | |
| 110 nmake -f make_mvc.mak install | |
| 111 | |
| 112 This will create the xx\LC_MESSAGES directory in runtime\lang if it does not | |
| 113 already exist. | |
