<P>The gamelist can be localised using templates. To generate a template click on the <A HREF="menu_misc.htm">Misc Menu</A>, then <I>Gamelist Language</I>, <I>Export gamelist translation template...</I>.</P>
<P>Save the template where you want and then open it in a text editor. The file is a tab-delimited text file, containing the games shortname and longname. Simply localise the longnames and save the file. If you are using multi-byte characters and need to use a different codepage than the system default, then uncomment the codepage line at the top of the file (remove the // ), and change the number to the relevant codepage.</P>
<P>To enable your localisation, click on the <A HREF="menu_misc.htm">Misc Menu</A>, then <I>Gamelist Language</I>, <I>Select gamelist Language</I> and then open your template.</P>
<P>To remove an applied template, click on the <A HREF="menu_misc.htm">Misc Menu</A>, then <I>Gamelist Language</I>, <I>Reset gamelist default Language</I>.</P>
<P>You can use MAME+ LST files for the template. Simply rename the file's extension to glt (eg, if the file is called <I>mame_kr.lst</I>, change it to <I>mame_kr.glt</I>), and add any necessary codepage definition if required. FB Alpha will ignore any extra text after the first two tab-delimited tokens.</P>
