Below is a list of the translations available for Explorer++. To make use of a translation, simply extract the translation DLL into the same folder as the Explorer++ executable.

Translating Explorer++

To translate Explorer++, please follow the steps below:

1. Download the translation spreadsheet for your language above. If your language does not appear on this page, please download and edit the template file.
2. Translate all English strings into your lagnuage. Please note the following:
   • Strings containing '%s' (i.e. Explorer++ Version %s (%s)) are updated dynamically. For example, the previous string will become something like: 'Explorer++ Version 1.2 (32-bit Unicode build)'. Therefore, the translated string should also contain '%s' in the appropriate place. If you're unsure how or where a string is used, please ask me.
   • An ampersand (&) within an items text indicates that that item has an access key. For example, the string '&Show on Bookmarks Toolbar' has an access key of 'S'. Translated items should also have access keys when possible.
   • Items containing a keyboard accelerator within their text should have a corresponding accelerator when translated. '&New Tab Ctrl+T', for example, indicates that a new tab can be created when pressing Ctrl+T. This portion of the string should also appear in the translated text.
3. Once you're satisfied with the translation, please check it for spelling mistakes and any other errors.
4. Send me the translation via This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it . I'll then build a DLL which I'll send back to you, so you have a chance to look over the final result. Although the translations are performed within a spreadsheet, they are still converted back into .rc form before I build the DLL. This means that all dialogs have the chance to be resized if the translated text is too long.
