As you may know the release of Toucan 2 is getting nearer. Because of this I need new translations. Currently I have 2.x translations for Dutch, German, Spanish, Estonian, French and Russian. If you would like to contribute a new translation though please post first below so we don't get duplication and follow the steps below.

If you do not have an existing translation then follow these steps:

  1. Download a copy of poEdit. This is the program you will use to translate Toucan.
  2. Go to http://drop.io/toucanlang and download the en.zip example file
  3. Extract it and open the .po file and translate it to your language
  4. Save it as (your language code).po and rename the .mo file created to toucan.mo
  5. Dump those files in a folder called (your language code) and update the sample ini file
  6. Put it under Toucan\App\toucan\lang and you are away!

If you already have a translation

  1. Go to http://drop.io/toucanlang and download the source.zip file
  2. Open your .po file and click Catalog->Settings and change the paths to those of the extracted files
  3. Update the translations as necessary
  4. Save it as (your language code).po and rename the .mo file created to toucan.mo
  5. Dump those files in a folder called (your language code) and update the sample ini file
  6. Put it under Toucan\App\toucan\lang and you are away!

Once you have done that if you could zip the files and upload them to the drop.io site I would be most grateful and they will be included in the first 2.0 release.

Thanks in advance and any questions please post below.

Just

a bump to say I would love Japanese if anyone could help out as it was in 1.x and we would hate to loose support for it.

New polish file for Toucan 2.0

Hi
I uploaded a new polish file for Toucan 2.0!
I tested this file and corrected all bugs from the old file.
Now my new file is fully working with Toucan 2.0!

Please update Toucan 2.0 with my new file!

Japanese

Allo,
I made and up-loaded a Japanese.mo as ToucanJP.zip.
Regards,
Asa

Re:Japanese

Oh, I didn't notice the V.2.1.0.
Is there a difference in those lang.mo?

There

are a few changes, I have emailed you the up to date file, thankyou for the translation Smiling

I'll do a french translation on my spare time.
