+Firefox localization
+====================
+
+Example installation of a dutch (nl_NL) language pack. Note the use of various
+versions of the locale's name: "nl" (name of the XPI file) versus "nl-NL"
+(value of the config variable) versus "nl_NL" (the official ISO name).
+
+* Install the "nl.xpi" language pack using this SlackBuild script. Create a
+  Slackware package using the following command (use your firefox version and
+  language):
+    # VERSION=15.0 LANG=nl ./mozilla-firefox-l10n.SlackBuild
+* If the Slackware locale already is set to "nl_NL" in your profile script
+  "/etc/profile.d/lang.sh", then you can use "about:config" to set the boolean
+    intl.locale.matchOS = true
+  which will force firefox to obey the locale setting of the OS. My package
+  does this for you automatically.
+* If your locale is not equal to the language you want to use for firefox,
+  you must explicitly set the interface language. First make sure that
+    intl.locale.matchOS = false
+  or else your locale setting will always have preference, and then set:
+    general.useragent.locale = nl-NL
+  This will cause the firefox interface to show in dutch after a restart.
+* Alternatively you can install this add-on to manage the language selection
+  in the firefox menu:
+    https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/locale-switcher/
+
+Enjoy!
