+Internationalisation
+
+If you want to contribute a translation the following hints
+may be of help to you:
+
+
+Step 1:
+ enter the MusE directory and edit the
+ file "muse.pro"
+
+ Append a new target file name at "TRANSLATIONS"
+ e.g. change
+ TRANSLATIONS = share/locale/muse_de.ts
+ into
+ TRANSLATIONS = share/locale/muse_de.ts \
+ share/locale/muse_fr.ts
+ if you want to generate a french MusE version.
+
+Step 2:
+ start the Qt-Program "lupdate"
+
+ lupdate muse.pro
+
+ Maybe "lupdate" is not in your PATH and you must
+ specify the complete pathname "lupdate"
+ Example:
+ /usr/lib/qt42/bin/lupdate muse.pro
+
+ This generates the file "locale/muse_fr.ts".
+
+Step 3:
+ Edit "share/locale/muse_fr.ts" manually or use the Qt "linguist" tool:
+
+ cd share/locale; linguist muse_fr.ts
+
+Step 4:
+ start the Qt program "lrelease"
+
+ lrelease muse.pro
+
+ This generates all *.qm files in share/locale
+
+Step 5:
+ install the *.qm files: as superuser start "make install"
+
+
+Step 6:
+ Test:
+ set the environment variable LANG to the desired
+ Language:
+ export LC_ALL=fr
+
+ Start MusE:
+ muse
+
+
