| 1 Notes on the Free Translation Project | |
| *************************************** | |
| 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 | |
| messages. | |
| 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_ | |
| 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 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. | |
| 1.1 Quick configuration advice | |
| ============================== | |
| If you want to exploit the full power of internationalization, you | |
| should configure it using | |
| ./configure --with-included-gettext | |
| to force usage of internationalizing routines provided within this | |
| 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, message inheritance, automatic | |
| charset conversion or plural form handling) 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 | |
| you have installed a recent copy of the GNU gettext package with the | |
| included `libintl'. | |
| 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 already | |
| provides the GNU `gettext' functions. If not, the included GNU | |
| `gettext' 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 behaviour. The commands: | |
| ./configure --with-included-gettext | |
| ./configure --disable-nls | |
| 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 not be desirable. You should use | |
| 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. | |
| 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 | |
| together with the package. However, the environment variable `LINGUAS' | |
| may be set, prior to configuration, to limit the installed set. | |
| `LINGUAS' should then contain a space separated list of two-letter | |
| codes, stating which languages are allowed. | |
| 1.3 Using This Package | |
| ====================== | |
| As a user, if your language has been installed for this package, you | |
| only have to set the `LANG' environment variable to the appropriate | |
| `LL_CC' combination. If you happen to have the `LC_ALL' or some other | |
| `LC_xxx' environment variables set, you should unset them before | |
| setting `LANG', otherwise the setting of `LANG' will not have the | |
| desired effect. 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 language 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. The up-to-date list of | |
| teams can be found at the Free Translation Project's homepage, | |
| `http://translationproject.org/', in the "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. | |
| The subscribing address is _not_ the same as the list itself, it has | |
| `-request' appended. For example, speakers of Swedish can send a | |
| message to `sv-request@li.org', having this message body: | |
| subscribe | |
| Keep in mind that team members are expected to participate | |
| _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 `coordinator@translationproject.org' to | |
| reach the coordinator for all translator teams. | |
| The English team is special. It works at improving and uniformizing | |
| the terminology in use. Proven linguistic skills are praised more than | |
| programming skills, here. | |
| 1.5 Available Packages | |
| ====================== | |
| Languages are not equally supported in all packages. The following | |
| matrix shows the current state of internationalization, as of November | |
| 2007. The matrix shows, in regard of each package, for which languages | |
| PO files have been submitted to translation coordination, with a | |
| translation percentage of at least 50%. | |

| 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 | |
| used for implementing regional variants of languages, or language | |
| dialects. | |
| For a PO file in the matrix above to be effective, the package to | |
| which it applies should also have been internationalized and | |
| distributed as such by its maintainer. There might be an observable | |
| lag between the mere existence a PO file and its wide availability in a | |
| distribution. | |
| If November 2007 seems to be old, you may fetch a more recent copy | |
| of this `ABOUT-NLS' file on most GNU archive sites. The most | |
| up-to-date matrix with full percentage details can be found at | |
| `http://translationproject.org/extra/matrix.html'. | |
| 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 | |
| `coordinator@translationproject.org' to make the `.pot' files available | |
| to the translation teams. | |
