How to change the language?

nic_tw
I am a firefox user with traditional Chinese. The default language of Zotero I could download is only simplified Chinese (However, I find Zotero had been translated to traditional Chinese in BabelZilla). How can I change it to traditional Chinese or English?

    We have not yet incorporated the traditional Chinese localization into our release build (the translation is new). We will include it in our next release, which is planned for the very near future. If you would like to take advantage of the traditional Chinese locale immediately, you can manually add it. To do so, you'll need to take the following steps:

    1. Download the zh-TW locale from BabelZilla and extract the zh-TW folder.
    2. Quit Firefox.
    3. Locate your Firefox extensions folder. Find the Zotero extension and unzip zotero.jar. Add the zh-TW folder to the locales folder.
    4. Rezip the zotero.jar folder without any compression and make sure it's still named zotero.jar.
    5. Edit the chrome.manifest folder to add the zh-TW locale.
    6. Restart Firefox.

    If you have any problems, make sure that all the new and edited files are saved UTF-8. Please note that we have not yet tested this locale.

    Dear Sean:
    I am sorry to say the zh-TW locale fail to work correctly in both Windows XP and Mac OS X.

    My mistake: I forgot to tell you to rezip the folder without any compression (e.g. zip -r0 ...). For complete instructions on modifying your Zotero extension, please see our developer document Modifying Zotero Files.

    I just tested the zh-TW locale, and it appears to work well.
