Notes on the Free Translation Project |

|
|
************************************* |

|
|
Free software is going international! The Free Translation Project is |
| 5 |
|
|
a way to get maintainers of free software, translators, and users all |
| 6 |
|
|
together, so that will gradually become able to speak many languages. |
| 7 |
|
|
A few packages already provide translations for their messages. |
| 8 |
|
|
|
| 9 |
|
|
If you found this `ABOUT-NLS' file inside a distribution, you may |
| 10 |
|
|
assume that the distributed package does use GNU `gettext' internally, |
| 11 |
|
|
itself available at your nearest GNU archive site. But you do _not_ |
| 12 |
|
|
need to install GNU `gettext' prior to configuring, installing or using |
| 13 |
|
|
this package with messages translated. |
| 14 |
|
|
|
| 15 |
|
|
Installers will find here some useful hints. These notes also |
| 16 |
|
|
explain how users should proceed for getting the programs to use the |
| 17 |
|
|
available translations. They tell how people wanting to contribute and |
| 18 |
|
|
work at translations should contact the appropriate team. |
| 19 |
|
|
|
| 20 |
|
|
When reporting bugs in the `intl/' directory or bugs which may be |
| 21 |
|
|
related to internationalization, you should tell about the version of |
| 22 |
|
|
`gettext' which is used. The information can be found in the |
| 23 |
|
|
`intl/VERSION' file, in internationalized packages. |
| 24 |
|
|
|
| 25 |
|
|
Quick configuration advice |
| 26 |
|
|
========================== |
| 27 |
|
|
|
| 28 |
|
|
If you want to exploit the full power of internationalization, you |
| 29 |
|
|
should configure it using |
| 30 |
|
|
|
| 31 |
|
|
./configure --with-included-gettext |
| 32 |
|
|
|
| 33 |
|
|
to force usage of internationalizing routines provided within this |
| 34 |
|
|
package, despite the existence of internationalizing capabilities in the |
| 35 |
|
|
operating system where this package is being installed. So far, only |
| 36 |
|
|
the `gettext' implementation in the GNU C library version 2 provides as |
| 37 |
|
|
many features (such as locale alias, message inheritance, automatic |
| 38 |
|
|
charset conversion or plural form handling) as the implementation here. |
| 39 |
|
|
It is also not possible to offer this additional functionality on top |
| 40 |
|
|
of a `catgets' implementation. Future versions of GNU `gettext' will |
| 41 |
|
|
very likely convey even more functionality. So it might be a good idea |
| 42 |
|
|
to change to GNU `gettext' as soon as possible. |
| 43 |
|
|
|
| 44 |
|
|
So you need _not_ provide this option if you are using GNU libc 2 or |
| 45 |
|
|
you have installed a recent copy of the GNU gettext package with the |
| 46 |
|
|
included `libintl'. |
| 47 |
|
|
|
| 48 |
|
|
INSTALL Matters |
| 49 |
|
|
=============== |
| 50 |
|
|
|
| 51 |
|
|
Some packages are "localizable" when properly installed; the programs |
| 52 |
|
|
they contain can be made to speak your own native language. Most such |
| 53 |
|
|
packages use GNU `gettext'. Other packages have their own ways to |
| 54 |
|
|
internationalization, predating GNU `gettext'. |
| 55 |
|
|
|
| 56 |
|
|
By default, this package will be installed to allow translation of |
| 57 |
|
|
messages. It will automatically detect whether the system already |
| 58 |
|
|
provides the GNU `gettext' functions. If not, the GNU `gettext' own |
| 59 |
|
|
library will be used. This library is wholly contained within this |
| 60 |
|
|
package, usually in the `intl/' subdirectory, so prior installation of |
| 61 |
|
|
the GNU `gettext' package is _not_ required. Installers may use |
| 62 |
|
|
special options at configuration time for changing the default |
| 63 |
|
|
behaviour. The commands: |
| 64 |
|
|
|
| 65 |
|
|
./configure --with-included-gettext |
| 66 |
|
|
./configure --disable-nls |
| 67 |
|
|
|
| 68 |
|
|
will respectively bypass any pre-existing `gettext' to use the |
| 69 |
|
|
internationalizing routines provided within this package, or else, |
| 70 |
|
|
_totally_ disable translation of messages. |
| 71 |
|
|
|
| 72 |
|
|
When you already have GNU `gettext' installed on your system and run |
| 73 |
|
|
configure without an option for your new package, `configure' will |
| 74 |
|
|
probably detect the previously built and installed `libintl.a' file and |
| 75 |
|
|
will decide to use this. This might be not what is desirable. You |
| 76 |
|
|
should use the more recent version of the GNU `gettext' library. I.e. |
| 77 |
|
|
if the file `intl/VERSION' shows that the library which comes with this |
| 78 |
|
|
package is more recent, you should use |
| 79 |
|
|
|
| 80 |
|
|
./configure --with-included-gettext |
| 81 |
|
|
|
| 82 |
|
|
to prevent auto-detection. |
| 83 |
|
|
|
| 84 |
|
|
The configuration process will not test for the `catgets' function |
| 85 |
|
|
and therefore it will not be used. The reason is that even an |
| 86 |
|
|
emulation of `gettext' on top of `catgets' could not provide all the |
| 87 |
|
|
extensions of the GNU `gettext' library. |
| 88 |
|
|
|
| 89 |
|
|
Internationalized packages have usually many `po/LL.po' files, where |
| 90 |
|
|
LL gives an ISO 639 two-letter code identifying the language. Unless |
| 91 |
|
|
translations have been forbidden at `configure' time by using the |
| 92 |
|
|
`--disable-nls' switch, all available translations are installed |
| 93 |
|
|
together with the package. However, the environment variable `LINGUAS' |
| 94 |
|
|
may be set, prior to configuration, to limit the installed set. |
| 95 |
|
|
`LINGUAS' should then contain a space separated list of two-letter |
| 96 |
|
|
codes, stating which languages are allowed. |
| 97 |
|
|
|
| 98 |
|
|
Using This Package |
| 99 |
|
|
================== |
| 100 |
|
|
|
| 101 |
|
|
As a user, if your language has been installed for this package, you |
| 102 |
|
|
only have to set the `LANG' environment variable to the appropriate |
| 103 |
|
|
`LL_CC' combination. Here `LL' is an ISO 639 two-letter language code, |
| 104 |
|
|
and `CC' is an ISO 3166 two-letter country code. For example, let's |
| 105 |
|
|
suppose that you speak German and live in Germany. At the shell |
| 106 |
|
|
prompt, merely execute `setenv LANG de_DE' (in `csh'), |
| 107 |
|
|
`export LANG; LANG=de_DE' (in `sh') or `export LANG=de_DE' (in `bash'). |
| 108 |
|
|
This can be done from your `.login' or `.profile' file, once and for |
| 109 |
|
|
all. |
| 110 |
|
|
|
| 111 |
|
|
You might think that the country code specification is redundant. |
| 112 |
|
|
But in fact, some languages have dialects in different countries. For |
| 113 |
|
|
example, `de_AT' is used for Austria, and `pt_BR' for Brazil. The |
| 114 |
|
|
country code serves to distinguish the dialects. |
| 115 |
|
|
|
| 116 |
|
|
The locale naming convention of `LL_CC', with `LL' denoting the |
| 117 |
|
|
language and `CC' denoting the country, is the one use on systems based |
| 118 |
|
|
on GNU libc. On other systems, some variations of this scheme are |
| 119 |
|
|
used, such as `LL' or `LL_CC.ENCODING'. You can get the list of |
| 120 |
|
|
locales supported by your system for your country by running the command |
| 121 |
|
|
`locale -a | grep '^LL''. |
| 122 |
|
|
|
| 123 |
|
|
Not all programs have translations for all languages. By default, an |
| 124 |
|
|
English message is shown in place of a nonexistent translation. If you |
| 125 |
|
|
understand other languages, you can set up a priority list of languages. |
| 126 |
|
|
This is done through a different environment variable, called |
| 127 |
|
|
`LANGUAGE'. GNU `gettext' gives preference to `LANGUAGE' over `LANG' |
| 128 |
|
|
for the purpose of message handling, but you still need to have `LANG' |
| 129 |
|
|
set to the primary language; this is required by other parts of the |
| 130 |
|
|
system libraries. For example, some Swedish users who would rather |
| 131 |
|
|
read translations in German than English for when Swedish is not |
| 132 |
|
|
available, set `LANGUAGE' to `sv:de' while leaving `LANG' to `sv_SE'. |
| 133 |
|
|
|
| 134 |
|
|
Special advice for Norwegian users: The language code for Norwegian |
| 135 |
|
|
bokma*l changed from `no' to `nb' recently (in 2003). During the |
| 136 |
|
|
transition period, while some message catalogs for this language are |
| 137 |
|
|
installed under `nb' and some older ones under `no', it's recommended |
| 138 |
|
|
for Norwegian users to set `LANGUAGE' to `nb:no' so that both newer and |
| 139 |
|
|
older translations are used. |
| 140 |
|
|
|
| 141 |
|
|
In the `LANGUAGE' environment variable, but not in the `LANG' |
| 142 |
|
|
environment variable, `LL_CC' combinations can be abbreviated as `LL' |
| 143 |
|
|
to denote the language's main dialect. For example, `de' is equivalent |
| 144 |
|
|
to `de_DE' (German as spoken in Germany), and `pt' to `pt_PT' |
| 145 |
|
|
(Portuguese as spoken in Portugal) in this context. |
| 146 |
|
|
|
| 147 |
|
|
Translating Teams |
| 148 |
|
|
================= |
| 149 |
|
|
|
| 150 |
|
|
For the Free Translation Project to be a success, we need interested |
| 151 |
|
|
people who like their own language and write it well, and who are also |
| 152 |
|
|
able to synergize with other translators speaking the same language. |
| 153 |
|
|
Each translation team has its own mailing list. The up-to-date list of |
| 154 |
|
|
teams can be found at the Free Translation Project's homepage, |
| 155 |
|
|
`http://www.iro.umontreal.ca/contrib/po/HTML/', in the "National teams" |
| 156 |
|
|
area. |
| 157 |
|
|
|
| 158 |
|
|
If you'd like to volunteer to _work_ at translating messages, you |
| 159 |
|
|
should become a member of the translating team for your own language. |
| 160 |
|
|
The subscribing address is _not_ the same as the list itself, it has |
| 161 |
|
|
`-request' appended. For example, speakers of Swedish can send a |
| 162 |
|
|
message to `[email protected]', having this message body: |
| 163 |
|
|
|
| 164 |
|
|
subscribe |
| 165 |
|
|
|
| 166 |
|
|
Keep in mind that team members are expected to participate |
| 167 |
|
|
_actively_ in translations, or at solving translational difficulties, |
| 168 |
|
|
rather than merely lurking around. If your team does not exist yet and |
| 169 |
|
|
you want to start one, or if you are unsure about what to do or how to |
| 170 |
|
|
get started, please write to `[email protected]' to reach the |
| 171 |
|
|
coordinator for all translator teams. |
| 172 |
|
|
|
| 173 |
|
|
The English team is special. It works at improving and uniformizing |
| 174 |
|
|
the terminology in use. Proven linguistic skill are praised more than |
| 175 |
|
|
programming skill, here. |
| 176 |

Available Packages |
| 178 |
|
|
================== |
| 179 |
|
|
|
| 180 |
|
|
Languages are not equally supported in all packages. The following |
| 181 |
|
|
matrix shows the current state of internationalization, as of January |
| 182 |
|
|
2004. The matrix shows, in regard of each package, for which languages |
| 183 |
|
|
PO files have been submitted to translation coordination, with a |
| 184 |
|
|
translation percentage of at least 50%. |

Some counters in the preceding matrix are higher than the number of |
| 735 |
|
|
visible blocks let us expect. This is because a few extra PO files are |
| 736 |
|
|
used for implementing regional variants of languages, or language |
| 737 |
|
|
dialects. |
| 738 |
|
|
|
| 739 |
|
|
For a PO file in the matrix above to be effective, the package to |
| 740 |
|
|
which it applies should also have been internationalized and |
| 741 |
|
|
distributed as such by its maintainer. There might be an observable |
| 742 |
|
|
lag between the mere existence a PO file and its wide availability in a |
| 743 |
|
|
distribution. |

this `ABOUT-NLS' file on most GNU archive sites. The most up-to-date |

Using `gettext' in new packages |
| 751 |
|
|
=============================== |
| 752 |
|
|
|
| 753 |
|
|
If you are writing a freely available program and want to |
| 754 |
|
|
internationalize it you are welcome to use GNU `gettext' in your |
| 755 |
|
|
package. Of course you have to respect the GNU Library General Public |
| 756 |
|
|
License which covers the use of the GNU `gettext' library. This means |
| 757 |
|
|
in particular that even non-free programs can use `libintl' as a shared |
| 758 |
|
|
library, whereas only free software can use `libintl' as a static |
| 759 |
|
|
library or use modified versions of `libintl'. |
| 760 |
|
|
|
| 761 |
|
|
Once the sources are changed appropriately and the setup can handle |
| 762 |
|
|
the use of `gettext' the only thing missing are the translations. The |
| 763 |
|
|
Free Translation Project is also available for packages which are not |
| 764 |
|
|
developed inside the GNU project. Therefore the information given above |
| 765 |
|
|
applies also for every other Free Software Project. Contact |
| 766 |
|
|
`[email protected]' to make the `.pot' files available to |
| 767 |
|
|
the translation teams. |
