+
+If you want to contribute a translation the following hints
+may be of help to you:
+
+Step 1:
+ If you want to update an existing translation, skip to step 2.
+
+ If you want to do a new translation, start with creating an
+ empty translation file:
+
+ touch share/locale/muse_fr.ts
+
+Step 2:
+ If you want to update an existing translation and you downloaded
+ a stable release (not a snapshot) of MusE, skip to step 3.
+
+ Populate your .ts file with the newest strings
+
+ mkdir build
+ cd build
+ cmake -DUPDATE_TRANSLATIONS=ON ..
+ make translations
+ cmake -DUPDATE_TRANSLATIONS=OFF ..
+ cd ..
+
+ Your file share/locale/muse_fr.ts is now ready for translation. It
+ is recommended that you copy this file to some other place and
+ and work on the copy.
+
+Step 3:
+ Edit "muse_fr.ts" manually or use the Qt "linguist" tool:
+
+ linguist muse_fr.ts
+
+Step 4:
+ Save the edited file "muse_fr.ts" from linguist and
+ start File->Release. This generates the file "muse_fr.qm".
+ Copy this file into your muse installation folder,
+ <prefix>/share/muse-2.0/locale/
+
+ or
+
+ Copy your edited "muse_fr.ts" into share/locale in the source tree
+ and rebuild/install muse
+
+ cd build
+ cmake -DUPDATE_TRANSLATIONS=OFF ..
+ make
+ sudo make install
+
+Step 5:
+ Test:
+ If your system locale is set to the same language as your
+ translation, simply start MusE:
+
+ muse2
+
+ Otherwise, start MusE with the desired locale using the -l flag
+
+ muse2 -l fr
+
