I isntalled the PO editor, it works quite well.
Which one? It would be good to keep tabs on which ones work well. I
didn't have very good luck with POedit, but I didn't try that hard.
gtranslator seemed nicer. LocFactory Editor is good too, but non-free
and Mac OS X only.
any tcl/tk guru here? doesn tcl/tk documentation exist in several
languages? that might help a bit, right? (I looked briefly for
something, but couldn't find much)
There are some people here who know enough Tcl. But I don't think Tcl
knowledge is needed for any translations. What's the question?

Yes, the English terms are the keys, don't change them. A good
editor program should make that apparent, that one reason to use a
PO editor instead of a text editor.
Also, if you want the text to be the same as the english text,
leave the entry blank, and it'll do the right thing.

and for the terms that stay the same as in english, do I have to
input them, or just let the space empty?

I forgot to add one detail, how to make a new translation:
1) Start with the template file:
http://pure-data.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/pure-data/branches/pd-devel/0.41.4/po/template.pot
2) rename it to your locale, using the language and maybe
country code:
- Bulgarian has only one locale, so the file would be bg.po
- Chinese differs based on country, so it could be zh_CN.po,
zh_HK.po, or zh_TW.po
3) the file most be encoded using UTF-8
To run Pd-devel with your translation:
1) svn co
https://pure-data.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/pure-data/branches/pd-devel/0.41.4
2) stick your .po into 0.41.4/po/
3) cd 0.41.4/src/locale
4) ./generate-msg.sh (you'll need to have gettext installed)
5) cd ../.. (i.e. back in the root folder of the source,
0.41.4)
6) ./autogen.sh && .configure && make
Hi,
I could have some time to work on this, the portugal portuguese
version. what are the steps to take on a windows system?
I haven't built it yet on Windows, but will soon. But you don't
need to run it to make a translation. I started a howto to
outline the process, please add to it anything that is relevant:
