I have tried to translate Opera and StarDownloader into Ayeri so far. I completed StarDownloader, but eventually gave up on Opera -- it took too much time. I have not yet figured out where all the GUI commands of Windows are stored, but I wouldn't like to fiddle with the operating system itself too much. Both Opera and StarDownloader however came with their own language files in plain vanilla text, so it was easy to translate things there.
