 Quick Guide for new translations
 --------------------------------
 
-If you want to translate Geany into another language, please go to the language statistics page
-(see below) to see whether your desired language already exists. If it already exists, please
-read the next section. Otherwise, get the SVN version of Geany, change to the po directory and
-start the new translation with:

-Fill in ll with the language code and CC with the country code. For example, to translate Geany

-This will create a file it.po. This file can be opened with a text editor (like Geany ;-)) or

-Please take care of menu accelerators(strings containing a "_").
-The "_" character should also be in your translation. Additionally, it would be nice if these

 Then send the file to Frank Lanitz and he will add the translation.
 
-It is a good idea to write to Frank before you start or while translating, because he can give
-you some hints on translating and ensure that the translation is not already in progress.
