Hi Paul I send you an explanation which sent me Vitaly Lomov some months ago and I found very useful:
status: http://l10n.gnome.org/module/gimp-help-2/ > here is google translate from Russian I sent somebody. hope it helps: > Thank you for what you want to join the project > I'll Explain everything from scratch, but from memory. Somewhere there was > a wiki for translators, but now there is only for developers.So ... > Source code translation is contained in the git repository. > http://git.gnome.org/browse/gimp-help-2/tree/. Subdirectory po / ru > contains files with Russian translation. This is the standard .po files: > row contains the English version msgid, msgstr must include Russian. If > not, translate between the quotes. For editing you can use Notepad++. General > Settings - UTF-8 encoding (Menu Encoding-> UTF8) and Linux EOL (menu Edit-> > EOL Conversion-> Unix format) - must themselves be established, but in any > case be sure. When you finish the file, you can send me or here, then we > fill in the main repository. This is - the easiest option. > > Now for the technique. As you see, you do not have any commands for > translation, but if you want to learn it, read on. > The chain of tools for creating the final product - instructions for use > in HTML, PDF, etc. - Works in Linux, so you need a Linux-shell.

Maybe it would be more convenient to ask this questions at the gimp documentation mailist: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-docs-list It's nice to see new people willing to contribute to gimp :) Guiu Rocafort On Thu, Sep 13, 2012 at 10:50 PM, emitor <emitor.emi...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi, > > I am a very satisfied gimp user from Slovakia...and if is it possible I > would try to make a Slovak translations for you...for us, I have some > skills from translating subtitles.
