The most important part of the translation, is of cource creating an installable language pack, or a language .jar file you can pack with a localized installer of the program. This is done from the Export menu.
 
To export a language pack that you can install on a Mozilla Suite or SeaMonkey, select XPI install from the Export menu. In the Export XPI window, enter these values:
*'''Locale''': your locale, in ab-CD format.
*'''File''': complete path, including file name, to the file that will be generated.
*'''display name''': this is the name that will be displayed in the language pack selection window of Mozilla Suite or SeaMonkey. This field is not used in other Mozilla products.
*'''Author''': author of the language pack. That will be you, of course. However, this field is not displayed to the user, and is only saved internaly in the language pack files.
*'''Preview URL''': irrelevant. Can be left empty.
 
Select the product and components to include in the language pack, and click OK.
