- There is a
SAMPLE.tsfile here. Open it inQt Linguist. - Pick the language you wish to translate to.
- Translate relevant strings.
- Try to resist the urge to include profanity.
- Save the file as
Lector_<language>and send it to me, preferably as a pull request.
Please keep the translations short. There's only so much space for UI elements.
