The format of texts in every section is  #UI_BACKWARD#=Backward. When you translate the language file, you just need to translate the words after  =  (Equal sign). Please do not modify parameters between the  # . Introductions of every section are listed as follows for your translation:

[Main] -  A basic description of the language file. With these parameters, the program can identify corresponding information such as language etc. Please do not make any modification.
