Languages overview

PicToWeave allows you to change the default language in which the interface is displayed.

When a new language is selected, all menus, buttons, labels etc are translated from their original English to the selected language.

The language files are located in the PicToWeave directory and have a *.lng file format.  e.g. English.lng contains the English text.  Espanol.lng contains the Spanish translation of the English file.
Each language file lists all the interface components it controls and the text that will be displayed on them.

The translation files shipped with PicToWeave have been translated using translation software only.  No human translations have been carried out.
Therefore we cannot guarantee that context and meanings have been correctly carried over in the translations.

It is possible to modify the language files.  A language file editor has been created for this purpose.
The files may also be edited directly using a text editor.
Only text should be altered.
Control characters such as double quotes " and line breaks #13#10 should not be altered.  Any alterations to these may cause incorrect formatting and display.
