Translating into any language is quite easy, you won't need anything
more then a text editor and CVS access. Get yourself the most recent
version from CVS and you'll find a directory /po. Inside, copy the file
pingus.pot to no.pot and translate the strings within into Norwegian
whereby you should try to keep the length of your translation equal or
below the english one. If that's not possible, try not to exeed the
length by much. Next there are the level files in /data/levels/tutorial.
One look into one should tell you how to add your translation there.
Difference of length doesn't matter as much here.
Once finished run "cvs -z3 diff -u > no_translation.diff" and send the
file to the list.
If you don't know how to get CVS access, you will find directions in the
developer section of the Pingus home page. If you've got any other
questions remaining, don't hesitate to ask.
