Magnus understands Spanish

Posted by atrilla on 23 November, 2008

According to the proposal that alfem posted on January the 30th., a translation of Magnus into Spanish, now it has come true. It is basically the same code as the original 0.1.1 release (in Catalan) but aimed at the Spanish language.

In the forge, a binary  distribution named “magnus-spanish” has been made available, as well as a simple copy-paste source-code patch that works along with the 0.1.1 release of Magnus in order to enable the continuity and improvement of the project, but now in Spanish too.
