Want ExpanDrive in Your Favorite Language?

Then send us a translation!

As Jeff mentioned previously, ExpanDrive 1.2.11 is ready for localization. There is a folder called ExampleLanguage.lproj in the Resources folder of the ExpanDrive bundle that contains the all the relevant .string files in English. All told, there are probably less than 1000 words.

At Magnetk, we love languages. Unfortunately, the only language that Jeff and I have studied formally is Latin, and Latin doesn’t even have words for most of the the things in ExpanDrive. So we’re going to have to depend on volunteers to help us make translations. We’ll happily send a 5-pack of licenses to anyone that donates a translation.

Additionally, inspired by Mike Lee, we’ll give a free site license to any reasonably sized not-for-profit or academic institution that would like to translate ExpanDrive.

Special thanks to Jannis Leidel for translating ExpanDrive into German translation.
