Yeah.. Been wondering if it would make sense to have a separate jar file for the i18n files.

And ain't nothing wrong with being from down under (but that's just my personal opinion) ;-)

The i18n files are not meant to be customized by people using JSPWiki, it is a mechanism to facilitate multiple languages, and not to (on site) customize
all message strings, but you can do it of course.
So the procedure you describe is basically correct, I can't think of an
easier way.

OK, delve a little deeper before asking and you might fix it yourself.

Perhaps someone can say if this method is wrong but it works for me. Please note that this is using Tomcat. Apparently (so my application server expert
tells me) this might not work in JBoss or Glassfish.

In WEB-INF/classes create a directory called "templates"

Copy JSPWiki.jar from WEB-INF/lib and from it extract copies of
/templates/default.properties and /templates/default_en.properties (assuming
that you are only changing the English version - use the appropriate
language for your situation) and put them in your new
WEB-INF/classes/templates directory. Edit those files with your favourite
text editor and finally restart JSPWiki.

I used JarInspector on OS X to extract the files from JSPWiki.jar but you could have just used zip. I did it all using root (sudo'd) permissions but
that probably wasn't necessary.

Can't find much on JSPWiki.org re Internationalisation or customising these
values. If I should add this, perhaps someone could let me know.
