=Building a localised Firefox=
 
Assuming you know how to build Mozilla. If you do not, go check out the build instructions [http://www.mozilla.org/projects/firefox/build.html|overhere].
 
To build a localised Firefox, you must have your l10n CVS checkout folder next to your mozilla CVS checkout folder (as ‘siblings’). E.g. Projects/Mozilla/mozilla/ and Projects/Mozilla/l10n/nl/.
 
If you don’t have it already, checking out the l10n folder is done with:
 
<pre class="code">cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@cvs-mirror.mozilla.org:/l10n co l10n/nl</pre>
 
Where you should substitute ‘nl’ with the language code which you want to work on.
 
Then, you should add the following line to your mozconfig file.
 
<pre class="code">ac_add_options --enable-ui-locale=nl</pre>
 
Again, substitute ‘nl’ for the language you want to build. Now if you build Firefox, it will automatically have the ‘nl’ locale.
