How to create or update a translation of TiddlyWiki

1. First, check below or  here to see if the translation you need already exists.

3. In another window, visit  http://svn.tiddlywiki.org/Trunk/association/locales/core/en/locale.en.js and copy all the text to the clipbard
4. Go back to the TiddlyWiki file and create a tiddler named after the language you are translating
5. Paste the clipboard into the body of the new tiddler
6. Add the tag "systemConfig" to the tiddler
