- Ad-aware 5.0 supports custom language modules.
- To add your own module, please follow these steps:
-
- In the folder where Ad-aware is installed, open the \Lang folder and make a copy of the "english.ini" file, and name it
- according to the language you want to add. (example "italian.ini" for an italian module)
- Please don't change the file extension, it must remain .ini.
-
- Now open the file with notepad, and translate the strings to the new language.
- here is a small example:
-
- ; button captions <-- comment, will be ignored
-
- 1068=Speichern. <-- strings, overwrite them with the appropriate word in your language
- 1069=Zurⁿck...
- 1070=Report...
- ...
-
- Note : it is important that you don't change\mix the line numbers, they are used to identify the strings.
-
- Make sure you don't exceed the length of the particular strings too much,
- for example if a string reads "next" it is recommended to translate it to "weiter" in german, rather then "fortsetzung" :)
-
-
- Special characters:
-
- # : stands for a linebreak(carriage return), used in long strings, for example in dialog-messages.
-
- %D : a variable which holds a value. (example : 'scan complete. %D items found')
- please dont remove them, Ad-aware inserts the appropriate value during runtime.
-
- comments start with a ; and will not displayed.
-
- After saving the file, you can supply a small 16 x 10 bitmap that represents your country.
- It will be displayed beneath the module-name in the Ad-aware configuration menu.
-
- You may add bitmaps with a different size, but only 16 pixels will be shown horizontally, 10 vertically.
- This is required to make the graphic fit to the used font-size.I suggest you open one of the delivered bitmaps and
- change it, then save it under a new filename.
-
- In order to have Ad-aware combine the bitmap with the .ini file, it must have exactly the same filename (just with a .bmp extension)
-
- For example :
-
- Svensk.ini (language module)
- Svensk.bmp (optional country flag)
-
- If no country flag is supplied, a default image will be used.
-
- Please send your language modules to coyote@lavasoft.de if you want to publish it on our website.
-
- Thank you for your contribution!
