Gettext support

[David Delassus]

Hi,

I'm currently working on the gettext support in order to translate Cream-Browser easily.

Why now ? Because after it may create so much work :(

Here is the todo list :

• Adapt source code for gettext usage (done)
• Add po/ files (working on)
• Add Makefile's rules for gettext (todo)

It will be soon committed :)

Gettext support is now completely added.

You have a po/ folder in the project's tree which contains :

• A Makefile in order to create/update/build translations files.
• po and mo files

How to use this makefile ?

• To create the template po file, run : make messages.pot
• To create a new po file (from messages.pot), run : make create_po LANG=LL (ie. LANG=fr for a french translation). Don't forget to edit the file's header.
  
• To update a po file (from messages.pot), run : make update_po LANG=LL
• To compile a po file into a mo file, run : make mo

Then you just have to add your po,mo files to git.

NB: messages.pot is generated automatically.

good stuff, man...  Glad to see this, as it fairly well eliminates the need to visit a site via google translator... would still compare and contrast so I could see which method is more accurate, but still good to have that level of an option available for the browser itself...

If "custom" was mass produced... it would just be a "product line."

Gettext is used to translate the UI, not website.

I hope I will be able to distribute more translations in the future :)

OHHH ok... you can tell I don't know much about this stuff (yet)...
