-1. What do I need?\r
-\r
-- a reasonably recent version of GNU gettext (e.g. 0.10.35)\r
- Check the version using e.g. msgfmt -V\r
-\r
-- autoconf\r
-\r
-- gnokii distribution :-)\r
-\r
-- if you have the variable LINGUAS in the environment\r
- (most Red Hats have, no idea about other distributions),\r
- unset it\r
-\r
-\r
-2. How to make gnokii.pot file?\r
-\r
-gnokii.pot file is a collection of all localizable strings\r
-in the gnokii package. It will be generated automagically\r
-and is included in the standard distribution package.\r
-\r
-If you need to regenerate it, goto "po" directory,\r
-remove gnokii.pot and say\r
-\r
- make gnokii.pot\r

-3.1 How to start translating for a new language?\r
-\r
-First, you would like to contact the authors or write\r
-to the mailing list - maybe there already is someone\r
-working on this translation. \r
-\r
-If you get the OK from the maintainer, there are several\r
-steps to do:\r
-\r
-- add the code of your language to the ALL_LINGUAS line\r
- in the configure.in file\r
-\r
- Caution: the language code may differ from the country\r
- code, e.g. czech language is cs, Czech Republic is cz \r
-\r
-- run autoconf to recreate configure script\r
-\r
-- reconfigure the package (./configure)\r
-\r
-- in the po directory, copy gnokii.pot to <country>.po\r
-\r
-- start translating\r

-\r
-3.2 How to merge existing translations with the updated gnokii.pot?\r
-\r
-This is simple. Rename the old file and use msgmerge to create\r
-an updated one:\r
-\r
- mv cs.po cs.po.bak\r
- msgmerge -o cs.po cs.po.bak gnokii.pot\r
-\r
-\r
-4. How to generate a .mo file\r
-\r
-When you say make in the po directory, all existing\r
-translations will be generated. The suffix will be .gmo.\r
-\r
-If you want to do this manually, use the msgfmt utility, e.g.\r
-\r
- msgfmt -o cs.mo -v cs.po \r
-\r
-\r
-5. How to install the files\r
-\r
-Again, the makefile takes care of this. Simply use (as root)\r
-\r
- make install\r
-\r
-in the po directory. If you want to do this manually (and/or\r
-for your language only), move the .mo file to\r
-/usr/share/locale/<your locale>/LC_MESSAGES/gnokii.mo \r
-\r
-\r
-I'm from Czech republic, so I did (well, I did not, but if you would\r
-like to localize gnokii, you should :-):\r
-\r
- cd po\r
- make gnokii.pot\r
- cp gnokii.pot cs.po\r
- <translating messages in cs.po>\r
- <checking the translations using> msgfmt -o cs.mo -v cs.po\r
- make\r
- make install\r
-\r
