2) HOW DO I EDIT PO FILES?
PO files can be edited with any text editor available for your system (e.g.
Vim, NotePad etc.). Yet another option is to use a specialized editor for .po
files. You can e.g. use the editors "poEdit" or "jEdit", Linux users can
additionally use e.g. "kbabel". Using these editors usually makes things easier
Vim, jEdit etc.). Yet another option is to use a specialized editor for .po
files. You can e.g. use the editor "Poedit", Linux users can
additionally use e.g. "Lokalize". Using these editors usually makes things easier
as they have many tools to assist the translator.
If you use Poedit, please uncheck in its settings the option to break lines after
80 characters.
3) WHAT DO I NEED TO TRANSLATE?

For advanced users - if you want to remerge your files against current source:
- on Linux: execute the command: make update-po
- on Windows: either build the update-po target in MSVC
or run the command: msbuild po\update-po.vcxproj
(depending on the directory you are in)
- on Windows: if you compile LyX in install mode, the po files are automatically
updated and output to the folder <compilation output folder>\po
Another option is to build the target "update-po" in MSVC.
