[TYPO3-english] Translating extensions

[Derik Kotze]

Hi Bernd

Thanks for the tip, I have the mail list on thunderbird now, way easier!

Sorry, but I am trying to get my head around this.

I have for example the typo3 calendar plugin installed.  The default 
language for the base (which include the days etc.) is in english.  I 
can obviously change the information for everyday into Afrikaans (which 
I did), but I am trying to also change the default day names.  I am 
trying to figure out if there is a way to do this somewhere in the 
backend/plugin, or can this only be done with a "language pack".  I hope 
this make sense.

Thanks.

Derik
