Hi @kintel, @jordanbrown0, and the OpenSCAD team,

I have added the complete native Lao (lo) translation for OpenSCAD (locale/lo.po) with 3,500 lines of translation covering UI, menus, viewport, and editor strings.

Having native Lao support will significantly empower students, makers, and 3D printing enthusiasts in Laos to design and script 3D models in our native language.

Please review and merge to officially bring OpenSCAD to Laos!

Best regards,
Bone NI (@bounkirdni-2025)

Nice, thank you! Could you please also add the language to the list in locale/LINGUAS which is currently needed for keeping the file in sync and flag changes when the source code is modified.

Can you check if the git push to Github had some problem? Github still only shows the lo.po file as change.

Oh, I forgot to mention that if you like, feel free to add your name to the About Dialog Translations section:

<h2>Translation</h2>
<p>Angelo Contardi, Miro Hron膷ok, Torsten Paul, Ernesto Bazzano, Keven Villeneuve, NeoTheFox,
Marek Piku艂a, Alexandre Prokoudine, Kyrylo Romanenko, Sargis Malkonyan, Alexandre Folle de Menezes,

Please do keep an eye on it and resync every once in a while. There's nothing that automatically translates new messages or automatically repairs message linkages that break when an English message is changed.

Hi @t-paul,
I have updated both locale/LINGUAS and added my name to resources/html/AboutDialog.html as suggested. Everything is set and ready for merge! Thank you again for your kind guidance! 馃嚤馃嚘
