1. How to install ETM on a translator's machine.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

On the translator's machine:

1) Create a directory (for example,"C:\ETM").

2) Copy the following files from the developer's machine into the
directory you just created:

from Rad Studio\<version>\bin:

required files

- etm.exe
- itecorennn.bpl
- rcnnn.bpl
- dfmnnn.bpl
- designidennn.bpl
- vclidennn.bpl

Optional files.

- dcl31wnnn.bpl
- dclactnnn.bpl
- dcladonnn.bpl
- dclbcbsmpnnn.bpl
- dclbdennn.bpl
- dclDataSnapIndy10ServerTransportnnn.bpl
- dclDataSnapProviderClientnnn.bpl
- dclDataSnapServernnn.bpl
- dcldbnnn.bpl
- dcldbxnnn.bpl
- dcldbxcdsnnn.bpl
- dclibnnn.bpl
- dclIennn.bpl
- dclIndyCorennn.bpl
- dclIndyProtocolsnnn.bpl
- dclmcnnnn.bpl
- dclmidnnn.bpl
- dclnetnnn.bpl
- dclribbonnnn.bpl
- dclsmpnnn.bpl
- dclstdnnn.bpl
- dclTee8nnn.bpl
- dcltouchnnn.bpl
- dclwbmnnn.bpl

from your appropriate Windows system directory, such as

 windows\system or \WINNT\System32:

required files

- vclnnn.bpl
- rtlnnn.bpl
- vclactnbandnnn.bpl
- vclimgnnn.bpl
- vclxnnn.bpl
- xmlrtlnnn.bpl

Optional files.

- *nnn.bpl

(nnn) corresponds to the version you have installed

3) Run ETM and select Tools | Options | Packages | Add.

4) Select all designtime package BPL files (dcl*.bpl) and click OK.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2. How to send Delphi projects for translation
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1) The developer will run the Resource DLL Wizard on his current
project. ETM generated files will be saved under a root directory
named after the language.

For example:

C:\MyDelphiProjects\AFK

is the Afrikaan translation root directory for a project saved in

"C:\MyDelphiProjects".

2) To send this project for translation, zip up this directory and send
this kit to the translator.

3) The translator will unzip the kit in a directory of his choice and
open the project file (.bdsproj) in ETM.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3. How to receive translated projects back into Delphi.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1) Copy all translated .rcn and .dfn files received from the translator
into your language root directory (for example,
"C:\MyDelphiProjects\AFK").

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4. Repository files.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Repository files are standalone files with an .tmx extension. They can
be sent back and forth with the translation kits.
