i18n in Bongo ============= Small guide for i18n in Bongo: bongo.pot contains the canonical source of translatable strings. This can be updated with "make bongo.pot". To make a new translation, make sure bongo.pot is up-to-date, and then `msginit -o $lang.po` when in the po/ directory, where $lang is the two-letter language code, Eg. fr, de, ru.. Note, that if no output file is given, it will create a po file based on your locale setting. Once you've created this file, translate each string as normal. To update a .po file, simply execute "make update-po". This will update bongo.pot, and then merge any new changes into all the po files. To create the binary gmo files, simply call "make update-gmo". This will not alter any pot or po file. Note: See also http://bongo-project.org/Guides/Translating_Bongo -- Jonny Lamb <jonnylamb@jonnylamb.com> Thu, 05 Jul 2007 21:42:33 +0100
