How to test translation files

1. Download english language file from: https://sourceforge.net/projects/xdman/files/lang/en.txt/download

6. Open the file in any archiver, and extract the lang folder from the zip file

9. Save the map file in UTF-8 option.
10. Now add the lang folder back to the zip file.
11. Rename the zip file back to the jar extension.
