Warning
Please note that we have a new system for translations in trunk, no plugin like RBE is required anymore (except in release 4.0 and for the POS). Look in the config directory of the example component to see how it is done.
Note also that there is now a new Labels Manager tool in Webtools
Translation of UI labels, error messages, entities labels, etc. (all labels in lab.xml files)
- Install Eclipse IDE : http://www.eclipse.org/downloads
- Install an XML editor (Oxygen, Buddy, WTP, etc.) : http://docs.ofbiz.org/x/5QM#Plugins-XML
- Install Subversion (svn) plugin in Eclipse aka Subclipse : http://subclipse.tigris.org
- Link to the repository with Subclipse : http://docs.ofbiz.org/x/mgM
- Make a project from this repository with Subclipse (Check Out)
At this point you should be able to do any translation with ease.There should be only one instance of a label in all translation files and labels should be, as much as possible, prefixed by the application name.
Translating other stuffs (can be extended from thelink below...)

Label Manager
To intialize the Label Manager in Webtools, before using "All files" option, 1st select a file and make a search. Then you will be able to select your language and all other options. This should be fixed one day...
