Contribution offer: Localization work

[Ivan Leo Murray-Smith]

Look at the programs directory, most programs can be translated. You're usually
looking for a De.rc file, if it's missing, make a second copy of the En.rc file,
and call it De.rc. Now translate the strings in the file. You then have to edit
the header file, this may be another rc file. In can case you can find the file
by running
grep En.rc *
in the programs directory.
Open the file, and add
#include "De.rc"
in alphabetical order in the list of language rc files. Once you've done this,
make a patch, so your work can be easily applied to the wine source tree, a
howto is at http://www.winehq.com/site/sending_patches.
Also note that quite a few dlls need translating too. The file may not always be
En.rc, for example in dlls/commdlg it's called cdlg_En.rc
Finally, one important thing is keeping the translations up to date, so you
should update the translation every time there is a change in the english
resource file. Don't forget to check that the existing translations are up to
date and correct.
Once you've done a patch, send it, in the email body or as an attachment, to
wine-patches at winehq.com
This should give you plenty of work for now :-)
