Introduction

------------

Virtaal is a graphical program for doing translation. It is meant to be easy

to use and powerful at the same time. Although the initial focus is on software

translation (localisation or l10n), we definitely intend it to be useful for

several purposes.

Installation

------------

The easiest way for most users to install Virtaal is through the provided

packages, or through the packaging system of their distribution. On the

Virtaal website there should be packages for Windows and several other systems.

If you want to install from source code, you will need to ensure you have all

the dependencies. For more information on building Virtaal to install it

yourself, please consult the website here:

http://docs.translatehouse.org/projects/virtaal/en/latest/building.html

Note that you will probably already want the Translate Toolkit installed and

working before you attempt to install Virtaal.

Reporting bugs

--------------

Please report bugs by clicking on '*Help->Report bug...*' from within Virtaal

(this requires a Bugzilla account).  Alternatively report directly using this

Taking the time to create a bugzilla account will help ensure that you can track

progress, provide feedback and allows others to see your bug report.

Design principles

-----------------

* Good looking

* Optimise for the most frequent use cases

* No necessity for mouse

* The most important information must be visible by default

* Only relevant (actionable) widgets should be shown

* Maximum functionality without setup
