Soon I will go one step in that direction: with CKS (customizable keyboard shortcuts) will come a list of short one-line descriptions of all commands that can be triggered by keyboard shortcuts (and this will be almost all commands available in XYplorer at all!). These descriptions can be read in from a simple INI-style file, and thus any language will possible here! In the program there will be an interface where you can search a function by name and read that short description.

I also plan to make the interface itself (all the captions) multi-lingual in quite a similar way, However, Chinese characters are not supported here, only Latin!

You will sooner learn English than XY will learn Chinese.

On the other hand, not I remember: I've seen screenshots of XYplorer on Chinese crack sites where the titlebar and other interface parts appeared to be in Chinese characters! So, the Chinese Windows OSs probably support it in a ways that will even include apps like XYplorer. There's hope...

It`s a great event! This shell needs multilanguage support! But... When?

Not yet. No concrete plan. Other things more important.

It uses a multibyte character set for the "Code Page", which is used to interpret strings passed to the -A forms (8-bit characters) of the Win32 functions. But you're not calling those, are you‽

It also uses a suitable font for the "system" font, used for title bars and menus etc.

Okay, thanks.
