Translation of content plugins is quite easy: Just create a text file with the same name as the content plugin, but with extension lng. Example: contentplug.wdx -> contentplug.lng.

 

These translations will be shown to the end user in all Total Commander dialogs, but the English strings will be stored in wincmd.ini (e.g. for saved searches, custom columns or in the multi-rename tool). Therefore it's very important to use English for the main content plugin!

 

This lng file contains a separate section for each language, with the same name as the language part of the main Total Commander translation files. Example wcmd_deu.lng -> section [deu] for German (called "Deutsch" in German).

 

In these sections, each string is translated like this:

original=translated
