[Caminol10n] Using iLocalize

[Tobias Stohr]

Hi Stefano,

>I 'm volunteering myself to write tutorials about it
That would be great!
I tried out iLocalize myself, but wasn't able to do a translation of
1.6. I started a new project, as en source I pointed to 1.6, created
my language and then tried to import all translated strings from
1.5ml. Unfotunately in this dialog, no language at all shows up and I
wasn't able to find a way to import the already translated strings.
So: I'm glad about a short instruction on how to start (for the
moment, I'm satisfied if you tell me how to import translated strings)


> SUStatus.nib
This is ok so. There are no strings in it to translate. Translation is
done via the strings file in the language.lproj folder.
You can open the file in IB and you'll get the message that it's read
only. And one string in it says just the above: translation is done in
language.lproj folder.

ciao
