The easiest way to do a translation would be to use the resources provided by the Translation Project on their Dink page. This allows you to download the "pot" file and change all the in-game strings in one big file, rather than going through each and every script. This way, the translation becomes automatic for Freedink users without them having to download anything extra, and if you choose to license it in the Public Domain or similar, Seth would be able to use it too.

If you want to do it script-by-script for whatever reason, the original uncompressed .c scripts are available in the "develop" folder if you download 1.08 or earlier versions, or by downloading the Freedink data package. It may be the case that the in-game font won't support Chinese characters though, and they may display as squares.
