translation domain specified in the

prefixing them with a |-separated context string, e.g.
"Menu/Printer|Open" vs. "Menu/File|Open". You must tell Libglade that
the property has a prefix by setting the <i class="parameter"><tt>context</tt></i>
attribute of the <tt class="sgmltag-element"><property></tt> element to "yes".
To learn more about this technique, read the chapter "How to use
gettext in GUI programs" in the gettext manual, and see the GLib
API documentation for g_strip_context().
</p><p>To add the strings found in a glade file to your
translation catalog template through the use of

yet?).</p></div><table class="navigation" width="100%" summary="Navigation footer" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="0"><tr valign="middle"><td align="left"><a accesskey="p" href="libglade-modules.html"><b><<Libglade Modules</b></a></td><td align="right"><a accesskey="n" href="libglade-extending.html"><b>Extending Libglade>></b></a></td></tr></table></body></html>
