-FIXME+X2Go's pinentry tool uses the same translation mechanism as X2Go Client (Qt4, Qt-Linguist, .ts files). Thus, see above. The ''.ts'' files are in the subfolder ''pinentry-x2go/'' of the project's source tree.

 +==== Translating PyHoca-GUI ====
  
-==== Translating pyhoca-gui ====+For PyHoca-GUI as a translater you have to use a gettext compatible (.po/.mo files) editor like '''poedit'''. The translation process is described in the ''[[http://code.x2go.org/gitweb?p=pyhoca-gui.git;a=blob;f=README.i18n|README.i18n]]'' file within PyHoca-GUI's source tree.
