Translations
It's important that WinNUT is translated and available to the preferred languages of anyone who uses it. If you're able to translate from English to other languages, it would be greatly appreciated if you could take the time to ensure that translations are present and accurate. Thank you for your interest in making WinNUT better to everyone.

Get started by clicking the Fork button at the top-right side of the repository. Preferably, give it a descriptive name for your intentions (such as translation-language_code), but this is not required.
Clone the repository to your computer using your preferred method. GitHub Desktop is recommended for getting started quickly.
With the Multilingual Toolkit downloaded and installed from the link above, open to where you saved your repository on your computer. Then navigate to WinNUT_V2/WinNUT-Client/MultilingualResources/
and open the language file you want to edit. If it's not listed, you may generate a new language as outlined in the Toolkit manual, or open an issue and request that a new one be added.
Switch to the Strings view, and find the phrase you want to translate. Edit the translation field and change the state to Translated
. Repeat this for however many phrases you want, then click Save. Note that you can also edit control positions and sizes to accommodate changes in layout due to translations as well.
Write a brief message about what you changed (or summarize), then commit, and click Push to origin (currently Fetch).
After, follow GitHub's instructions to open a pull request with our repo and have your changes merged into the project.
