Translation for traditional Chinese

[codemee]

Since Pricessing use 2-digit labguage code, it's not possible to distinguish language like Tranditional Chinese(zh-tw) with Simplified Chinese(zh-cn). Can we make diferent language file for these 2 languages?

Sure, if you'd like to add the new translation, I can look into doing the work to make it possible to use the extended codes.

I have made a translation of Traditional Chinese (zh-tw) two years ago.

https://github.com/jsyeh/PDE_zh.properties/blob/main/PDE_zh.properties

It is used in my classroom -- it had been tested by 100+ students for two years. @codemee, is it possible for you to proofread/verify/improve this translation? Therefore the translation quality will be better to integrated into Processing.

@benfry

Since @jsyeh had made the traslation file for zh-tw, it seems to be the right time to make Processing using the language file according to the 4-digit code.

@jsyeh I'll test your translation file, thanks.

Thanks @jsyeh, this is great. Let me see what I can do…

Ok, looks like we're in business for the next release (probably 4.1 since we're adding a few features like this).

and once selected:

For now, you can use it if you build from source, or let me know what platform you're on and I can see about posting a pre-release for you.
