It's very easy to translate the GUI using poEdit.
To install it in Ubuntu:
sudo apt-get install poedit
To install it in Windows, download the installer and launch it.
To create a translation file, download gimx.pot.
Start poEdit, and click on "File > New Catalog from POT File...".
Select gimx.pot, fill the fields (don't edit the other tabs), validate, and save the .po file (name it <lang_id>.po). To see what your language id is, type "locale" in a terminal (without quotes). Example for the french language id: the result is "LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8", the language id is "fr".
Translate the messages that are not translated, and save.
To test the translation in Linux, execute the following commands:
mkdir -p /usr/share/locale/<lang_id>/LC_MESSAGES msgfmt -o /usr/share/locale/<lang_id>/LC_MESSAGES/gimx.mo <lang_id>.po
To test the translation in Windows, generate gimx.mo with poEdit, and put it in the GIMX installation directory, in a share/locale/<lang_id>/LC_MESSAGES directory.
and start gimx-serial, gimx-bluetooth, gimx-fpsconfig or gimx-config.
