<h2><b>Eclipse NL Tools</b></h2>
<p><a href="org.eclipse.ui.tools.nl.zip">org.eclipse.ui.tools</a> 1.0.0</p>
<p>org.eclipse.ui.tools is a tool that takes existing nl catalogs and generates
translations for the current version of Eclipse. Existing translations are kept
and any properties without a translation are given a string appended with
characters appropriate to that locale.</p>
<p>Translations are generated using an export wizard (Translation Wizard). This
wizard requests a source and destination for translations files and provides a
list of source projects in the workbench for the user to select. Jars and zip
files are not currently searched for properties files and will be ignored. </p>
<p>As not all properties files are message catalogs a filter mechanism has also
been added (see Preferences-&gt;Translation Generation) that by default filters
the jfacefonts files and the build properties files. The user may add and remove
filters using this mechanism.</p>
