Every template (backend, frontend, plugin) can have translationable content, which is a string (a single word or a sentence) enclosed by {t} and {/t} special tag. For example, in a .tpl file:

{t}Title{/t}: {$object.title}

You can create translations for these contents editing properly .po files, located in i18n folders:

$BEDITA_HOME/bedita-app/locale/LC_MESSAGES/< lang >/default.po
$FRONTEND_PATH/locale/LC_MESSAGES/< lang >/default.po
$BEDITA_MODULES_PATH/locale/LC_MESSAGES/< lang >/< plugin-name >.po

These files can be updated/created through BEdita gettext shell script.

BEdita shell script gettext

BEdita use gettext internazionalization and localization (i18n) system.

Usage of the shell script method update:

 ./cake.sh gettext update [-frontend < frontend-path >] [-plugin < plugin-name >]
