"""i18n (multiple language) support. Reads .mo files from GNU gettext msgfmt
If you want to prepare your Python programs for i18n you could simply
add the following lines to the top of a BASIC_MAIN module of your py-program:
try:
import fintl
gettext = fintl.gettext
fintl.bindtextdomain(YOUR_PROGRAM, YOUR_LOCALEDIR)
fintl.textdomain(YOUR_PROGRAM)
except ImportError:
def gettext(msg):
return msg
_ = gettext
and/or also add the following to the top of any module containing messages:
import BASIC_MAIN
_ = BASIC_MAIN.gettext
Now you could use _("....") everywhere instead of "...." for message texts.
Once you have written your internationalized program, you can use
the suite of utility programs contained in the GNU gettext package to aid
the translation into other languages.
You ARE NOT REQUIRED to release the sourcecode of your program, since
linking of your program against GPL code is avoided by this module.
Although it is possible to use the GNU gettext library by using the
*intl.so* module written by Martin von Lwis if this is available. But it is
not required to use it in the first place.
