121108 - OS X Splash Screen has unlocalisable text.

Status: VERIFIED INVALID

(Core :: Internationalization, defect)

Description

[danielmc]

When Mozilla launched in OS X the splash screen displays the text "Starting
up..." this text is unnecessary and not translatable. Can we remove it or place
it somewhere localisable.

Actually our problem was that we could not localise these resources in OS X at
all.. Even using Resourcer

Daniel, you should be able to localize it by:
1) Use Resourcer to open Netscape 6 app from the Netscape OS X package, 
Contents/MacOS.
2) Double-click the resource DLOG 512.
3) You should see the "Starting up..." there, and can change it to whatever you 
want. To change it, you may need to move the splash image away first, and move 
back after your change.
Let me know if you have any questions.

Per Daniel's comment, I reopen this.

It's actually localizable. 
We can close this one, and disscuss it in the dup.

Strange. If I rename netscape.app to something else and then navigate to the dir
with Resorcerer and open the Binary I only see a data fork. But if i navigate
without renaming netscape.app everything works fine....

Closing.
