Hello! As far as I can make out, the language code for Mongolian is "mn". So let's call the file you've created "mn.po".
The first step is to convert that file into a loadable module, a ".mo". On a unix system, or a Windows system with Cygwin installed, you could do: msgfmt -cvo pidgin.mo mn.po This will produce a file named "pidgin.mo". Assuming your Pidgin directory is %pidgin%, then you can create the directory "%pidgin%\locale\mn\LC_MESSAGES", and place the file "pidgin.mo" in there. Next, we have to force Pidgin to load that file. The most rough-and-ready way to do this, is to set the environment variable "LC_ALL" to "mn". This will basically tell any locale-configurable program on your computer to use Mongolian if it can. In Windows, you can do this by right-clicking on "My Computer", and selecting "Properties". A window named "System Properties" will appear. Select the tab titled "Advanced", and click on "Environment Variables". A new window titled "Environment Variables" will open. It is split into two parts: user variables on top, and system variables on the bottom. Please click on the "New" button for the user variables. For "Variable name" give "LC_ALL" (without the qoutes), and for "Variable value" type "mn" (again, without the quotes). Now just click "OK" until all the windows we've opened are closed. In a unix system, just run "export LC_ALL=mn" or add to your auto-load script (~/.bashrc or whatever) the line: export LC_ALL=mn That's it. Now run Pidgin and it should work. P.S. If anyone on the list has a simpler way of doing this, let me know please :-) 2008/5/12 Myagaa jav <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > Hi, all > > I completely made Pidgin translation into Mongolian.
