Instructions for translations [Updated 11/02/2006]

Message par FTP »

Exceptionnellement ce document est rédigé en anglais car il s'adresse aux personnes (la plupart du temps étrangÚres) susceptibles de traduire mes MODs.

--------------------------

If you want to create or update a translation, please read this topic and respect these little rules... :-)
  1. Before starting your translation, please verify that the translation does not already exists. If it's not the case, ok you can go. But if it already exists and you just want to update it, please contact the translator first!
    He has the priority and I'll not do anything without his agreement.
  2. On the other hand, if you create a new translation, ok you'll become the new official translator; but you'll also have to update it when needed!
    And as you can understand, I must put a deadline to upgrade translations otherwise they can stay outdated for years.
    So, from the day a new MOD version which includes language entry changes comes out, you'll have 1 month to update your translation; otherwise, anybody else will be authorized to create its version, post it, and replace your translation as the new official one.
  3. In any case, to create a new translation, please copy the French or the English file and modify it. Never create a new file!

    For a specific php language files:

    Code : Tout sélectionner

    <?php
    /***************************************************************************
     *                       lang_sig_control.php [English]
     *                            -------------------
     *   begin                : Sat May 28 2005
     *   copyright            : (C) 2005 -=ET=- https://www.golfexpert.net/phpbb
     *   email                : toto@free.fr
     *
     *   $Id: lang_sig_control.php, 1.0.0, 2005/05/28 00:00:00, -=ET=- Exp $
     *
     ***************************************************************************/
    Modify:
    - The language name
    - The "begin" date
    - The copyright
    - The email
    - The version, date & author name

    Don't create any other file such as a mini MOD to explain how to copy this file!
    The main MOD always includes all users need to know.

    For a translation mini MOD:

    Code : Tout sélectionner

    ############################################################## 
    ## MOD Title:          PHP Syntax Highlighter BBCode French translation
    ## MOD Author:         -=ET=- < N/A > (N/A) https://www.golfexpert.net/phpbb
    ## MOD Description:    Translate PHP Syntax Highlighter BBCode in French

    ## MOD History: 
    ## 
    ##   2005-07-01 - Version 1.0.0 
    ##      - Initial release
    ##

    Modify:
    - The language in the MOD Title and MOD Description
    - The MOD Author
    - The Files To Edit path and/or name if needed
    - Included Files path and/or name if needed
    - The MOD History
  4. Next, ZIP your file(s), put the language directory name in the archive name, plus the MOD name and the MOD version (example: "lang_russian_signature_control_1.2.3.zip"), and post the archive in the translation topic of the concerned MOD.
  5. Post separate archives in the right translation topic if you make several translations!
  6. Never copy/paste you translation in your posts!
    It's useless.
After being verified, all the translation files will be included in the MOD archive and you'll be credited.

Thanks for your help! :-D
