It is possible to set up the GUI of OpenWayback to use nationalized strings. There is a separate file located under WEB-INF/classes that contains all the strings for the user interface. The name of the original file is WaybackUI.properties.

To create a localized version of the file use the following:

Linux - Tomcat

Make a copy of the original WaybackUI.properties and name it using the following scheme

WaybackUI_<lang>_<territory>.properties

The parts should match the value of the LANG environment variable. The OpenWayback engine will choose the language file that matches the setting of LANG eg. if WEB-INF/classes contains the following two files:

WaybackUI.properties WaybackUI_nb_NO.properties

LANG=nb_NO.UTF-8 Makes OpenWayback use the Norwegian translation. LANG=en_US.UTF-8 Makes OpenWayback use the text from the original properties file.
