Hi,

I'm searching a real good tutorial on using Gettext and .po files to
localize a software on Visual C# 2008.

Otherwise, a tool to Easily edit a .resx file ...

Thanks for your help ...

Hi Jean-Luc,

There are several options for localizing your GUI/app, and the method
to do it depends largely on the scale/size of your application. It
also depends on who will be translating it (a professional translator,
or you yourself?). Could you say something about this concerning your
project?

zea software on Visual C# 2008.

You might want to take a look at Infralution's Globalizer.NET.   It
scans your project's resx files for localizable items (strings,
positions, sizes etc) and allows you to edit them in one consolidated
workspace.   It also speeds up the translation process by allowing
your translator to build and run the localized application - without
you having to give them your source code.   You can get more
information and download an evaluation version from:

I also offer my own product, a Visual Studio add-in that extracts all strings from any arbitrary Visual Studio solution and loads them into a single file that translators can localize using a free standalone application. The same add-in is later used to import the strings back into your solution. Professionally written and extremely easy to use (almost no learning curve). Extensive functionality including the ability for your translators to view your forms in context during the translation process. Feel free to test-drive it at http://www.hexadigm.com
