What is LinLocalize?

LinLocalize

LinLocalize is a must-know tool for any developer looking to reach more users. If you're working with Delphi, which usually uses English, this app helps you translate your projects easily.

What is LinLocalize?

So, what exactly is LinLocalize? It's a software utility created in Delphi itself. It comes packed with translation string lists that make it super easy to translate resources in executable files. But here’s the catch: the developers suggest not using it for localizing projects into multiple languages at once. You’ll need to convert hard-coded strings into resource strings first for that.

Easy Translations from English

If you're mainly translating from English to another language, LinLocalize works like a charm! This way, you won’t have those pesky English error messages popping up.

User-Friendly Interface

This tool aims to be an easier option than DxGettext or Borland's Translation Manager. With its friendly interface, you can create new localization projects and extract source strings from Delphi executable files quite effortlessly. Plus, it helps you generate new language resources!

No Documentation? No Problem!

You might think that without documentation, it would be tough to use, but LinLocalize is so intuitive that even beginner Delphi developers can pick it up quickly. To help you get started, there’s a test project included that you can load right into the application.

Create Your Localization Project

When starting a new localization project, you can include various source files (like EXE, DLL, OCX, or BPL) and target languages. LinLocalize will analyze everything and give you info about the available source strings for exploration or updates.

Generate Language Resources

This app lets users create new string lists and target files easily! You can produce language resources saved as DLL files or standalone installers in different languages using Google Translate and other translation memory formats. However, keep in mind that it can't adapt forms to fit the target language perfectly.

Simplifying Your Translation Process

Thanks to LinLocalize, translating a Delphi project becomes way simpler! Its built-in resource parser grabs string lists directly from your input portable executable file. Sure, there are some bumps along the way, but it's user-friendly and straightforward. Plus, it allows updates of resource files so only changed or new ones need translation!
