<h3>Localizing</h3>
<!-- START --><p>
<p>
Starting from the version 3.1, message files can be written using localized headers.
While localization is in use, english words can still be used.
Localization settings can also be used to drop some unwanted headers from the incoming files, like "From_TOA".
</p>
<p>
A file containing definitions of localization can be defined in the global section of configuration file (smsd.conf)
using the setting: <b>language_file = /path_to_smstools3/examples/language-UTF-8.fi</b>. 
</p>
<p>
Character set used in the language file should match to the locale setting used by the system
which creates outgoing message files. This is very important when UTF-8 is used as a locale, because
byte sequences of special characters should match. Because of this, there is two versions of finnish
translation available in the <i>examples</i> directory: <b>language-ISO-8859-15.fi</b> and <b>language-UTF-8.fi</b>.
</p>
<p>
Headers written using Unicode are not currently supported.
If you are interested to use Unicode headers, please contact the author.
</p>
<p>
Localization file can contain empty lines and comment lines starting with # character.
Keywords are case-insensitive and everything is checked by the smsd.
Keyword and value is separated using an equal sign.
If there are syntactical failures, an error message is produced and the smsd does not start.
</p>
<p>
First, some general settings are available:
<table border=1 bgcolor=lightgrey>
  <tr><td bgcolor=yellow>incoming</td>
      <td>yes/no. Default: yes. Defines if incoming message files are written using localized headers.</td>
  </tr>
  <tr><td bgcolor=yellow>datetime</td>
      <td>format string. Can be used to localize timestamp format.<br>
      For example: <b>datetime = %d.%m.%Y %H:%M:%S</b> produces <b>14.08.2007 12:34:56</b>.<br>
      See <i>man strftime</i> for more details.</td>
  </tr>
  <tr><td bgcolor=yellow>yes_word</td>
      <td>Defines a word to be used when smsd writes "yes" word to the file, like "kyll".</td>
  </tr>
  <tr><td bgcolor=yellow>no_word</td>
      <td>Used like yes_word.</td>
  </tr>
  <tr><td bgcolor=yellow>yes_chars</td>
      <td>Define one or more character sequences (or byte sequences if using UTF-8) which means "yes" as the input value.<br>
      Sequence should be inside apostrophes and sequences are delimited using comma.<br>
      For example in finnish, "yes" can be defined using: <b>yes_chars = 'K','k'</b>.
      </td>
  </tr>
  <tr><td bgcolor=yellow>no_chars</td>
      <td>Used like yes_chars.</td>
  </tr>
</table>
</p>

<p>
While defining alternatives for message file headers, ensure that there is colon included at the end of word.
Some words in the following list are used in the content part, and there colon should not be used.
This list includes a definition how and where a header is used by the smsd.
</p>
<p>
Alternative content for a header can be given as "-" (minus sign only) which means that there is no
translation for this header and smsd does not print this header to the files.
If a header has a translation to be used as an input, and it is wanted that this header is not printed
to the files, an alternative text can start with minus sign.
Some headers cannot be omitted, those cases are market to the list.
