You are using the QSO Language File Editor Version 2.2.  This is
the program you use to translate or customize QSO internal text.

The F1 help key is fully context sensitive.  Use it at any field
or dialog box to obtain information on that item.

This program allows mouse control of all of its features.  All
status line indicators are "mouse active" as are all edit fields,
menu items, action line entries, and dialog box buttons.

To begin editing a language file you should select "File" then
load from the menus to load a file to edit.
