Hi Pierre Just forwarded <https://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/spanish/2020-October/008937.html> to the Spanish Language list, let's see if someone has experience in translating from Spanish.
I understand software presenting interfaces into Spanish should be fine on picking your "es-US" code since it's one of the (apparently) supported codes, at least on my computer. $ cat /usr/share/i18n/SUPPORTED | grep -o "es_.." | uniq es_AR es_BO es_CL es_CO es_CR es_CU es_DO es_EC es_ES es_GT es_HN es_MX es_NI es_PA es_PE es_PR es_PY es_SV es_US es_UY es_VE On Mon, 5 Oct 2020 at 08:17, Pierre Abbat <p...@bezitopo.org> wrote: > I prepare some of my programs, including PerfectTIN, with translation > files to > make sure that the internationalization works.
