The <listColumns> element can be used to translate list-column headings into a different language.

Shareaza uses many different lists, each of which is identified by a name. Each list is translated separately by a <list> element. Furthermore, each column in each list is translated by mapping its original english name to a foreign language name. This preserves compatibility if changes are made to the design of the list.

Here is an example from MyListColumnsSkin.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<skin xmlns="http://www.shareaza.com/schemas/Skin.xsd" version="1.0">

<listColumns>

   <list name="Neighbours">

      <column from="Address" to="Connecter"/>

   </list>

<listColumns>

</skin>

Finding the original column names to include in the from attribute of the <column/> is easy enough by looking at the software while it is running. Discovering the list names is a bit harder, so they are listed here:

• Neighbours
• Downloads
• Uploads
• Library
• Matches
• Discovery
• HostCache
• Security
