Provides an easier way to support multiple user-interface languages in VB.NET. Developer creates user-interface text ad-hoc and in-place, in his or her native language.

NetText is a partial work-alike of GNU gettext (http://www.gnu.org/software/gettext/). It is simplified to an extreme (eg, not tested with non-European languages), but still very useful - certainly more useful than having no multilingual support at all because it's too much trouble!

Features

  • Uses the GNU gettext paradigm - no resource ID codes to maintain
  • Developer creates UI text ad-hoc and in-place: sT_("this is an example")
  • Includes source scanner, translation editor and redistributable DLL (with source code)
  • Scanner utility reads VB.NET projects, extracts marked UI text and creates translation template
  • Optional editor utility for convenient translation
  • (Editor utility pre-alpha feature; interfaces w/ Google Translate)
