-The Monero command line tools can be translated in various languages.
-In order to use the same translation workflow as the future GUI, they
-use Qt Linguist translation files. However, to avoid the dependencies
-on Qt this normally implies, they use a custom loader to read those
-files at runtime. In order to update, or build translations files, you
-do need to have Qt tools installed, however. For translating, you need
-either the Qt Linguist GUI, or another tool that supports Qt ts files,
-such as Transifex. To run, you do not need anything Qt.
-
-To update ts files after changing source code:
-
-  ./utils/translations/update-translations.sh
-
-To add a new language, eg Spanish (ISO code es):
-
-  cp translations/monero.ts translations/monero_es.ts
-
-To edit translations for Spanish:
-
-  linguist translations/monero_es.ts
-
-To build translations after modifying them:
-
-  ./utils/translations/build-translations.sh
-
-To test a translation:
-
-  LANG=es ./build/release/bin/monero-wallet-cli
-
-To add new translatable sources in the source:
-
-  Use the tr(string) function if possible. If the code is in a class,
-  and this class doesn't already have a tr() static function, add one,
-  which uses a context named after what lupdate uses for the context,
-  usually the fully qualified class name (eg, cryptonote::simple_wallet).
-  If you need to use tr in code that's not in a class, you can use the
-  fully qualified version (eg, simple_wallet::tr) of the one matching
-  the context you want.
-  Use QT_TRANSLATE_NOOP(string) if you want to specify a context manually.
-
-If you're getting messages of the form:
-
-  Class 'cryptonote::simple_wallet' lacks Q_OBJECT macro
-
-all is fine, we don't actually need that here.
