| This directory contains the ImageMagick configure files. Currently this |
| document only gives basic instructions for adding another locale to the |
| messaging subsystem: For now the only locale supported is C. To translate to |
| another locale, do the following. Assume the new locale is klingon. Type |
| |
| cp english.xml klingon.xml |
| |
| Edit klingon.xml and translate all the messages. Do not translate |
| the tags: |
| |
| <Message name="ThisIsATag"> |
| this is a message |
| </Message> |
| |
| Save the messages to the ImageMagick install directory (the directory |
| where you find the files colors.xml and delegates.xml). Edit locale.xml |
| in the ImageMagick install directory and add the locale alias to the |
| file: |
| |
| <include locale="kl_gn.IQR-6668-1" file="klingon.xml"/> |
| |
| To test the message translataions, type |
| |
| convert logo: /image.jpg |
| |
| Assuming the root partition is not writable by you, you should get |
| the message: |
| |
| convert: Unable to open file (/image.jpg) [Permission denied]. |
| |
| except in the klingon language. |
| |
| The last step is the most important. E-mail klingon.xml to |
| magick-developers@imagemagick.org with a note that you are contributing your |
| message translation to the ImageMagick project and that it can be redistributed |
| under the ImageMagick copyright. |
