r3 translation set

r3 translation set location source translation

Sets the translation of source at the location specified by location. The location may be specified without the page element, in which case the translation is set in the generic page. The page should already have been created using r3 target create if specifying a non-generic page element in location.

For example: r3 translation set cheese/ca hello bonjour creates the translation bonjour for hello for the location cheese/ca/generic.
