Gettext to localize software, or .resx file editor

J-L
Hi,

I'm searching a real good tutorial on using Gettext and .po files to
localize a software on Visual C# 2008.

Otherwise, a tool to Easily edit a .resx file ...

Thanks for your help ...

Hi Jean-Luc,

There are several options for localizing your GUI/app, and the method
to do it depends largely on the scale/size of your application. It
also depends on who will be translating it (a professional translator,
or you yourself?). Could you say something about this concerning your
project?

You might want to take a look at Infralution's Globalizer.NET. It
scans your project's resx files for localizable items (strings,
positions, sizes etc) and allows you to edit them in one consolidated
workspace. It also speeds up the translation process by allowing
your translator to build and run the localized application - without
you having to give them your source code. You can get more
information and download an evaluation version from:

www.infralution.com/globalizer.html

I'm losing icons from a .resx file, and I'm not sure why. I'm adding the icons using ResEditor (the resource editor that ships unbuilt with VS.Net). I add the icons, save the .resx file, and all seems well. If I reopen the ..resx file, the icons are there, just as expected. But after a couple of compiles, the icons are gone. It I reopen the .resx file, they are no longer there. My code doesn't do anything with the .resx files-- it just...

Hi- I'm editing text resources (for multilingual support) in resx files, and I find I waste a lot of time using the editor in vs.net---the editing functions are either buggy or else very poorly thought out: - can't copy-and-paste a line from one set of resources to another - hitting "shift" while typing a space highlights the whole line, causing the next key press to erase the entire value - hitting End or Home only takes you to the...

I have the latest version of Visual Studio 2008 Professional, which allows you to create resource files (this is the .resx file, no?), unlike the Express version, which does not.

I want to embed the .wav file in a 'resource file' since I don't want the user storing the file on...
