In plain English

This repository provides a Simplified Chinese localization of MobaXterm, a Windows terminal application. MobaXterm is a tool that lets Windows users connect to remote servers and run Unix-style commands from a single interface. It supports connection methods like SSH, RDP, VNC, FTP, and others, and it bundles a built-in X server so graphical applications running on a remote Linux machine can display their windows on your Windows desktop. The localization effort here translates the app's interface text into Simplified Chinese, including menus, tooltips, and other prompts that the original English release does not cover. The README notes that the software's actual functionality has not been changed, only the display language. The project does not provide registration codes or cracking techniques for MobaXterm, and the author states it is a non-commercial research project into localization methods. MobaXterm itself runs as a single portable executable, meaning it does not require admin rights to install and can be launched from a USB drive. A free Home edition exists for personal use, and a paid Professional edition is aimed at business environments. The localization here targets the free portable Home edition. Downloads are available through the GitHub Releases page. The README is written in Chinese. As of the last noted update, the localization covered version 24.3 of MobaXterm at 100% translation completion. The project is maintained by a single contributor. The README requests that users who find value in the work leave a star on the repository.
