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.

I forgot to add one detail, how to make a new translation:
- Start with the template file:
http://pure-data.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/pure-data/branches/pd-devel/0.41... 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:
- svn co https://pure-data.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/pure-data/branches/pd-devel/0....
- stick your .po into 0.41.4/po/
- cd 0.41.4/src/locale
- ./generate-msg.sh (you'll need to have gettext installed)
- cd ../.. (i.e. back in the root folder of the source, 0.41.4)
- ./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:

realize his wishes. Now that he can realize them, he must either
change them, or perish. -William Carlos Williams
