MULTI-LANGUAGE SUPPORT
Movable Type supports multiple languages through the use of language packs.
A language pack is simply a list of translated phrases and words, along with
a set of images for navigation within the Movable Type system.
To install a language pack that you've downloaded from the Movable Type
web site, follow these steps:
- Copy the translated phrases.
The .pm file contains the plaintext list of translated phrases. Upload
this file into your extlib/MT/L10N/ directory in ASCII mode. If you do
not have such a directory structure, create it.
- Copy the images.
The folder named lang-<language_tag>, where <language_tag>>
is the tag for the language you downloaded, contains the images needed by
the system. Upload this folder, in BINARY mode, into the images folder
that you uploaded when you installed Movable Type.
If you are interested in translating Movable Type into a language not
currently provided, please contact l10n@movabletype.org.
