+------------------------
+
+To create the screenshots, perform the following steps:
+1. Create a directory called /tmp/l10n_scripts.
+2. Copy the scripts to the /tmp/l10n_scripts directory.
+3. Edit the appropriate script (see below)
+ to replace the English text with the localised text, where applicable.
+4. Ensure that all scripts are executable.
+ If necessary, run the following command:
+ chmod +x <script-name>
+5. Run the script from the /tmp/l10n_scripts directory, as follows:
+ cd /tmp/l10n_scripts
+ . ./<script-name>
