Internationalisation

If you want to contribute a translation the following hints
may be of help to you:

Step 1:
      If you want to update an existing translation, skip to step 2.

      If you want to do a new translation, start with creating an
      empty translation file:

            touch share/locale/muse_fr.ts

Step 2:
      If you want to update an existing translation and you downloaded
      a stable release (not a snapshot) of MusE, skip to step 3.

      Populate your .ts file with the newest strings

            mkdir build
            cd build
            cmake -DUPDATE_TRANSLATIONS=ON ..
            make translations
            cmake -DUPDATE_TRANSLATIONS=OFF ..
            cd ..

      Your file share/locale/muse_fr.ts is now ready for translation. It
      is recommended that you copy this file to some other place and
      and work on the copy.
      
Step 3:
      Edit "muse_fr.ts" manually or use the Qt "linguist" tool:

            linguist muse_fr.ts

Step 4:
     Save the edited file "muse_fr.ts" from linguist and
     start File->Release. This generates the file "muse_fr.qm".
     Copy this file into your muse installation folder,
     <prefix>/share/muse-2.0/locale/

      or

      Copy your edited "muse_fr.ts" into share/locale in the source tree
      and rebuild/install muse

            cd build
            cmake -DUPDATE_TRANSLATIONS=OFF ..
            make
            sudo make install

Step 5:
      Test:
            If your system locale is set to the same language as your 
            translation, simply start MusE:

                  muse2

            Otherwise, start MusE with the desired locale using the -l flag

                  muse2 -l fr
