-1. What do I need?
-
-- a reasonably recent version of GNU gettext (e.g. 0.10.35)
- Check the version using e.g. msgfmt -V
-
-- autoconf
-
-- gnokii distribution :-)
-
-- if you have the variable LINGUAS in the environment
- (most Red Hats have, no idea about other distributions),
- unset it
-
-
-2. How to make gnokii.pot file?
-
-gnokii.pot file is a collection of all localizable strings
-in the gnokii package. It will be generated automagically
-and is included in the standard distribution package.
-
-If you need to regenerate it, goto "po" directory,
-remove gnokii.pot and say
-
- make gnokii.pot
-
-
-3.1 How to start translating for a new language?
-
-First, you would like to contact the authors or write
-to the mailing list - maybe there already is someone
-working on this translation.
-
-If you get the OK from the maintainer, there are several
-steps to do:
-
-- add the code of your language to the ALL_LINGUAS line
- in the configure.in file
-
- Caution: the language code may differ from the country
- code, e.g. czech language is cs, Czech Republic is cz
-
-- run autoconf to recreate configure script
-
-- reconfigure the package (./configure)
-
-- in the po directory, copy gnokii.pot to <country>.po
-
-- start translating
-
-
-3.2 How to merge existing translations with the updated gnokii.pot?
-
-This is simple. Rename the old file and use msgmerge to create
-an updated one:
-
- mv cs.po cs.po.bak
- msgmerge -o cs.po cs.po.bak gnokii.pot
-
-
-4. How to generate a .mo file
-
-When you say make in the po directory, all existing
-translations will be generated. The suffix will be .gmo.
-
-If you want to do this manually, use the msgfmt utility, e.g.
-
- msgfmt -o cs.mo -v cs.po
-
-
-5. How to install the files
-
-Again, the makefile takes care of this. Simply use (as root)
-
- make install
-
-in the po directory. If you want to do this manually (and/or
-for your language only), move the .mo file to
-/usr/share/locale/<your locale>/LC_MESSAGES/gnokii.mo
-
-
-I'm from Czech republic, so I did (well, I did not, but if you would
-like to localize gnokii, you should :-):
-
- cd po
- make gnokii.pot
- cp gnokii.pot cs.po
- <translating messages in cs.po>
- <checking the translations using> msgfmt -o cs.mo -v cs.po
- make
- make install
-
-And now:
-
-SnowWhite:/tmp/gnokii$ export LC_MESSAGES=cs_CZ
-SnowWhite:/tmp/gnokii$ ./gnokii --version

-example with "Mar" which is substitute by the C preprocessor.
