informations

========

- Before you begin
- Create a new translation
- Update an existing translation
- Man page translation


BEFORE YOU BEGIN
================

Make sure you have the required packages on your system: you'll need
the build-depends of the Debian package that are listed in the line
that starts with "Build-Depends" in the debian/control file.


CREATE A NEW TRANSLATION
========================

1. Generate an uptodate template of translatable strings

In sources root, execute: 

    ./setup.py build

which will (re)generate the template `po/whisperback.pot`

2. Create the translations file for your language

In the `po/` directory, execute:

    msginit --locale=<yourlocale>

For example to create a french translation file:

    msginit --locale=fr_FR

3. Edit the translation file as usually

4. Send the result to Tails developers to include it in a next release


UPDATE AN EXISTING TRANSLATION
==============================

1. Generate an uptodate template of translatable strings

In sources root, execute:

    ./setup.py build

which will (re)generate the template `po/whisperback.pot`

2. Update the translations file for your language

In the `po/` directory, execute:

    msgmerge --update <yourlocale>.po whisperback.pot

For example to update a french translation file:

    msgmerge --update fr.po whisperback.pot

3. Edit the translation file as usually

4. Send the result to Tails developers to include it in a next release


MAN PAGE TRANSLATION
====================

The man page source located in `doc/whisperback.t2t` is not currently
translatable. Any help is welcome.
