In fact, RB Manager 922e5b6d6dSopenharmony_ci as a project grew out of the frustrations and errors that developed as 932e5b6d6dSopenharmony_ci the result of trying to maintain multiple language support in a moderately 942e5b6d6dSopenharmony_ci large project. Relying on text editors and the like decreases the chance 952e5b6d6dSopenharmony_ci that developers will properly comment each aspect of each translation, 962e5b6d6dSopenharmony_ci increases the chance that errors such as duplicate key names and inconsistencies 972e5b6d6dSopenharmony_ci across language files, and increases the amount of time developers and 982e5b6d6dSopenharmony_ci translators have to spend tracking down inconsistencies and untranslated 992e5b6d6dSopenharmony_ci resources.</P> 1002e5b6d6dSopenharmony_ci <P>RBManager offers the following features to correct these problems:</P> 1012e5b6d6dSopenharmony_ci <P> 1022e5b6d6dSopenharmony_ci <UL> 1032e5b6d6dSopenharmony_ci 1042e5b6d6dSopenharmony_ci <LI> RB Manager can edit multiple language files when appropriate</LI> 1052e5b6d6dSopenharmony_ci <LI>Entries are checked for proper format and assured not to be duplicates</LI> 1062e5b6d6dSopenharmony_ci 1072e5b6d6dSopenharmony_ci <LI>RB Manager provides a better grouping of resources, so that individual 1082e5b6d6dSopenharmony_ci translations are easy to find</LI> 1092e5b6d6dSopenharmony_ci <LI>Each language file will display in its own view a list of only resources 1102e5b6d6dSopenharmony_ci that are untranslated</LI> 1112e5b6d6dSopenharmony_ci 1122e5b6d6dSopenharmony_ci <LI>RB Manager keeps track of statistics such as number of resources, 1132e5b6d6dSopenharmony_ci untranslated items, etc.</LI> 1142e5b6d6dSopenharmony_ci 1152e5b6d6dSopenharmony_ci <LI>RB Manager allows importing and exporting of translation data into 1162e5b6d6dSopenharmony_ci multiple formats</LI> 1172e5b6d6dSopenharmony_ci <LI>Use of the application cuts down on development, translation, and 1182e5b6d6dSopenharmony_ci debugging time in any internationalized setting</LI> 1192e5b6d6dSopenharmony_ci </UL> 1202e5b6d6dSopenharmony_ci 1212e5b6d6dSopenharmony_ci <P><B>Will RB Manager work on my computer?</B></P> 1222e5b6d6dSopenharmony_ci 1232e5b6d6dSopenharmony_ci <P>RB Manager is written using only the Java API.
