Tutorial Registration

The R Project has a global and active community with members speaking different languages around the world, often with the need or preference to be able to use R a language instead of English. To support this, R Core has implemented GNU gettext helpers enabling the translation of messages, warnings, errors etc since R version 2.1.0 (April 2005). This tutorial will provide a short overview of the related history; discuss how translations are managed in base R; review the standard PO file format used by gettext; describe the traditional process for contributing patches to R Core, and then introduce Weblate, a web-based PO file editor that simplifies the translation process. By the end of the tutorial, you should be able to translate messages from base R into your natural language of choice.
