Remark: The program with higher version (e.g., minipad2 v3.1.6) can use the language file with lower version (v3.1.5) without any problem, but in the UI there may be a few new items remains in English.

How to update your translation (for old translators):

If you want to update your translation (e.g., 3.1.5 --> 3.1.6), you can download the following file:

LngUpdates.zip (1 KB)

to see the changes since your last translation. The file contains a list of the changes / new items since 3.1.4, each version compares with it's previous version.

You can also download the newest version of English.zip for a final check.

How to translate (for new translators):

If you want to translate the software into other languages, please download the following file:

English.zip (5 KB)

Translate all the English items into your language (The lines start with // are notation lines and need not to be translated. And please do not modify the numeric ids like 2000=),

save the file as XXX.lng (XXX means your language, e.g., French, Deutsch, Japanese...) with UTF16LE (Unicode) encode, and put the file in minipad2/lang. Then in the software go to "Options"-->"Program Settings" and choose your language,

Click "OK" to exit the options dialog, then you'll see the UI are in your language...

After you finished the translation if you want to share it with other people, please send the file to xiaodiega@gmail.com, then I'll put it here for download.

Thank you very much for your help!
