Good night. I wonder if there is any translation of the rails to the Portuguese? Thank you. ---

As I replied you in a private message, in summary: - copy the pt-BR.yml file from the above repository to your config/locales directory: > **[rails-i18n/rails/locale at master · svenfuchs/rails-i18n](https://github.com/svenfuchs/rails-i18n/tree/master/rails/locale/)** > > master/rails/locale/ - set config.default\_locale = :‘pt-BR’ in your envirnoment.rb - You’ll need to translate yourself the files in public dir, such as 404.html, 500.html, etc. The index.html should be removed since it is used only as an introduction to what steps you should follow to write your application.

I forgot to write here the actual problem. From private messages, I’ve noted that the problem Adriano was getting was related to how we are managing the Sven F. i18n-rails repository in Github. In Rails I18n guides, this repository is pointed as a repository for I18n locale files. But I’ve submitted a pull request recently changing the {{strings}} to %{strings} Rails 3 way. We should revert these changes on master and create a separate branch Rails 3 that does this in an automated way in a single commit for all languages: replace ‘{{’ by ‘%{’ and ‘}}’ by ‘}’. What do you think? Best regards, Rodrigo. Em 23-06-2010 22:55, Adriano Dias da Silva escreveu:
