Re: [etoys-dev] Localization for Squeak products

Andreas, The EToys QuickGuides are a blend of pictures and text on a small-format page. Spacing and layout are very important. We found that the #translated technique did not work. Quickguides need to be translated as a whole by hand. Each QuickGuide is a separate file, so we made up a separate folder of guides for each language. The person doing the translation duplicates the folder and edits each file. He/she moves the images around and re-words the text. QuickGuides are a special case where formatting is very important.
