+Free software is going international! The Free Translation Project is
+a way to get maintainers of free software, translators, and users all
+together, so that free software will gradually become able to speak many
+languages. A few packages already provide translations for their

If you found this `ABOUT-NLS' file inside a distribution, you may
assume that the distributed package does use GNU `gettext' internally,
-itself available at your nearest GNU archive site. But you do *not*
+itself available at your nearest GNU archive site. But you do _not_
need to install GNU `gettext' prior to configuring, installing or using
this package with messages translated.
Installers will find here some useful hints. These notes also
explain how users should proceed for getting the programs to use the
available translations. They tell how people wanting to contribute and
-work at translations should contact the appropriate team.
+work on translations can contact the appropriate team.
When reporting bugs in the `intl/' directory or bugs which may be
related to internationalization, you should tell about the version of
`gettext' which is used. The information can be found in the
`intl/VERSION' file, in internationalized packages.
-One advise in advance
-=====================
+1.1 Quick configuration advice
+==============================
- If you want to exploit the full power of internationalization, you
+If you want to exploit the full power of internationalization, you
should configure it using
./configure --with-included-gettext
package, despite the existence of internationalizing capabilities in the
operating system where this package is being installed. So far, only
the `gettext' implementation in the GNU C library version 2 provides as
-many features (such as locale alias or message inheritance) as the
-implementation here. It is also not possible to offer this additional
-functionality on top of a `catgets' implementation. Future versions of
-GNU `gettext' will very likely convey even more functionality. So it
-might be a good idea to change to GNU `gettext' as soon as possible.

- So you need not provide this option if you are using GNU libc 2 or
+many features (such as locale alias, message inheritance, automatic
+charset conversion or plural form handling) as the implementation here.

+ So you need _not_ provide this option if you are using GNU libc 2 or
you have installed a recent copy of the GNU gettext package with the
included `libintl'.
-INSTALL Matters
-===============
+1.2 INSTALL Matters
+===================
- Some packages are "localizable" when properly installed; the
-programs they contain can be made to speak your own native language.
-Most such packages use GNU `gettext'. Other packages have their own
-ways to internationalization, predating GNU `gettext'.

By default, this package will be installed to allow translation of
-messages. It will automatically detect whether the system provides
-usable `catgets' (if using this is selected by the installer) or
-`gettext' functions. If neither is available, the GNU `gettext' own
-library will be used. This library is wholly contained within this
-package, usually in the `intl/' subdirectory, so prior installation of
-the GNU `gettext' package is *not* required. Installers may use
-special options at configuration time for changing the default

+Installers may use special options at configuration time for changing

./configure --with-included-gettext
- ./configure --with-catgets
./configure --disable-nls
-will respectively bypass any pre-existing `catgets' or `gettext' to use

-the use of the `catgets' functions (if found on the locale system), or
-else, *totally* disable translation of messages.
+will, respectively, bypass any pre-existing `gettext' to use the
+internationalizing routines provided within this package, or else,
+_totally_ disable translation of messages.
When you already have GNU `gettext' installed on your system and run
configure without an option for your new package, `configure' will
probably detect the previously built and installed `libintl.a' file and
-will decide to use this. This might be not what is desirable. You
-should use the more recent version of the GNU `gettext' library. I.e.

+the more recent version of the GNU `gettext' library. I.e. if the file
+`intl/VERSION' shows that the library which comes with this package is
+more recent, you should use
./configure --with-included-gettext
to prevent auto-detection.
- By default the configuration process will not test for the `catgets'
-function and therefore they will not be used. The reasons are already
-given above: the emulation on top of `catgets' cannot provide all the
-extensions provided by the GNU `gettext' library. If you nevertheless
-want to use the `catgets' functions use
-
- ./configure --with-catgets
-
-to enable the test for `catgets' (this causes no harm if `catgets' is
-not available on your system). If you really select this option we
-would like to hear about the reasons because we cannot think of any
-good one ourself.
+ The configuration process will not test for the `catgets' function
+and therefore it will not be used. The reason is that even an
+emulation of `gettext' on top of `catgets' could not provide all the
+extensions of the GNU `gettext' library.

+ Internationalized packages usually have many `po/LL.po' files, where
LL gives an ISO 639 two-letter code identifying the language. Unless
translations have been forbidden at `configure' time by using the
`--disable-nls' switch, all available translations are installed
`LINGUAS' should then contain a space separated list of two-letter
codes, stating which languages are allowed.
-Using This Package
-==================
+1.3 Using This Package
+======================
- As a user, if your language has been installed for this package, you
+As a user, if your language has been installed for this package, you
only have to set the `LANG' environment variable to the appropriate
-ISO 639 `LL' two-letter code prior to using the programs in the
-package. For example, let's suppose that you speak German. At the
-shell prompt, merely execute `setenv LANG de' (in `csh'),
-`export LANG; LANG=de' (in `sh') or `export LANG=de' (in `bash'). This
-can be done from your `.login' or `.profile' file, once and for all.
-
- An operating system might already offer message localization for
-many of its programs, while other programs have been installed locally
-with the full capabilities of GNU `gettext'. Just using `gettext'
-extended syntax for `LANG' would break proper localization of already
-available operating system programs. In this case, users should set
-both `LANGUAGE' and `LANG' variables in their environment, as programs
-using GNU `gettext' give preference to `LANGUAGE'. For example, some
-Swedish users would rather read translations in German than English for
-when Swedish is not available. This is easily accomplished by setting
-`LANGUAGE' to `sv:de' while leaving `LANG' to `sv'.
-
-Translating Teams
-=================
-
- For the Free Translation Project to be a success, we need interested
+`LL_CC' combination. Here `LL' is an ISO 639 two-letter language code,
+and `CC' is an ISO 3166 two-letter country code. For example, let's
+suppose that you speak German and live in Germany. At the shell
+prompt, merely execute `setenv LANG de_DE' (in `csh'),
+`export LANG; LANG=de_DE' (in `sh') or `export LANG=de_DE' (in `bash').
+This can be done from your `.login' or `.profile' file, once and for
+all.
+
+ You might think that the country code specification is redundant.
+But in fact, some languages have dialects in different countries. For
+example, `de_AT' is used for Austria, and `pt_BR' for Brazil. The
+country code serves to distinguish the dialects.
+
+ The locale naming convention of `LL_CC', with `LL' denoting the
+language and `CC' denoting the country, is the one use on systems based
+on GNU libc. On other systems, some variations of this scheme are
+used, such as `LL' or `LL_CC.ENCODING'. You can get the list of
+locales supported by your system for your country by running the command
+`locale -a | grep '^LL''.
+
+ Not all programs have translations for all languages. By default, an
+English message is shown in place of a nonexistent translation. If you
+understand other languages, you can set up a priority list of languages.
+This is done through a different environment variable, called
+`LANGUAGE'. GNU `gettext' gives preference to `LANGUAGE' over `LANG'
+for the purpose of message handling, but you still need to have `LANG'
+set to the primary language; this is required by other parts of the
+system libraries. For example, some Swedish users who would rather
+read translations in German than English for when Swedish is not
+available, set `LANGUAGE' to `sv:de' while leaving `LANG' to `sv_SE'.
+
+ Special advice for Norwegian users: The language code for Norwegian
+bokma*l changed from `no' to `nb' recently (in 2003). During the
+transition period, while some message catalogs for this language are
+installed under `nb' and some older ones under `no', it's recommended
+for Norwegian users to set `LANGUAGE' to `nb:no' so that both newer and
+older translations are used.
+
+ In the `LANGUAGE' environment variable, but not in the `LANG'
+environment variable, `LL_CC' combinations can be abbreviated as `LL'
+to denote the language's main dialect. For example, `de' is equivalent
+to `de_DE' (German as spoken in Germany), and `pt' to `pt_PT'
+(Portuguese as spoken in Portugal) in this context.
+
+1.4 Translating Teams
+=====================
+
+For the Free Translation Project to be a success, we need interested
people who like their own language and write it well, and who are also
able to synergize with other translators speaking the same language.
-Each translation team has its own mailing list, courtesy of Linux
-International. You may reach your translation team at the address
-`LL@li.org', replacing LL by the two-letter ISO 639 code for your
-language. Language codes are *not* the same as the country codes given
-in ISO 3166. The following translation teams exist, as of December
-1997:
-
- Chinese `zh', Czech `cs', Danish `da', Dutch `nl', English `en',
- Esperanto `eo', Finnish `fi', French `fr', German `de', Hungarian
- `hu', Irish `ga', Italian `it', Indonesian `id', Japanese `ja',
- Korean `ko', Latin `la', Norwegian `no', Persian `fa', Polish
- `pl', Portuguese `pt', Russian `ru', Slovenian `sl', Spanish `es',
- Swedish `sv', and Turkish `tr'.
-
-For example, you may reach the Chinese translation team by writing to
-`zh@li.org'.

+teams can be found at the Free Translation Project's homepage,
+`http://www.iro.umontreal.ca/contrib/po/HTML/', in the "National teams"
+area.
+
+ If you'd like to volunteer to _work_ at translating messages, you
should become a member of the translating team for your own language.

message to `sv-request@li.org', having this message body:

Keep in mind that team members are expected to participate
-*actively* in translations, or at solving translational difficulties,
+_actively_ in translations, or at solving translational difficulties,
rather than merely lurking around. If your team does not exist yet and
you want to start one, or if you are unsure about what to do or how to
get started, please write to `translation@iro.umontreal.ca' to reach the
the terminology in use. Proven linguistic skill are praised more than
programming skill, here.

Some counters in the preceding matrix are higher than the number of
visible blocks let us expect. This is because a few extra PO files are
lag between the mere existence a PO file and its wide availability in a
distribution.

+1.6 Using `gettext' in new packages
+===================================
+
+If you are writing a freely available program and want to
+internationalize it you are welcome to use GNU `gettext' in your
+package. Of course you have to respect the GNU Library General Public
+License which covers the use of the GNU `gettext' library. This means
+in particular that even non-free programs can use `libintl' as a shared
+library, whereas only free software can use `libintl' as a static
+library or use modified versions of `libintl'.
+
+ Once the sources are changed appropriately and the setup can handle
+the use of `gettext' the only thing missing are the translations. The
+Free Translation Project is also available for packages which are not
+developed inside the GNU project. Therefore the information given above
+applies also for every other Free Software Project. Contact
+`translation@iro.umontreal.ca' to make the `.pot' files available to
+the translation teams.
