     1 1 Notes on the Free Translation Project
       
     2 ***************************************
       
     3 
       
     4 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 free software will gradually become able to speak many
       
     7 languages.  A few packages already provide translations for their
       
     8 messages.
       
     9 
       
    10    If you found this `ABOUT-NLS' file inside a distribution, you may
       
    11 assume that the distributed package does use GNU `gettext' internally,
       
    12 itself available at your nearest GNU archive site.  But you do _not_
       
    13 need to install GNU `gettext' prior to configuring, installing or using
       
    14 this package with messages translated.
       
    15 
       
    16    Installers will find here some useful hints.  These notes also
       
    17 explain how users should proceed for getting the programs to use the
       
    18 available translations.  They tell how people wanting to contribute and
       
    19 work on translations can contact the appropriate team.
       
    20 
       
    21    When reporting bugs in the `intl/' directory or bugs which may be
       
    22 related to internationalization, you should tell about the version of
       
    23 `gettext' which is used.  The information can be found in the
       
    24 `intl/VERSION' file, in internationalized packages.
       
    25 
       
    26 1.1 Quick configuration advice
       
    27 ==============================
       
    28 
       
    29 If you want to exploit the full power of internationalization, you
       
    30 should configure it using
       
    31 
       
    32      ./configure --with-included-gettext
       
    33 
       
    34 to force usage of internationalizing routines provided within this
       
    35 package, despite the existence of internationalizing capabilities in the
       
    36 operating system where this package is being installed.  So far, only
       
    37 the `gettext' implementation in the GNU C library version 2 provides as
       
    38 many features (such as locale alias, message inheritance, automatic
       
    39 charset conversion or plural form handling) as the implementation here.
       
    40 It is also not possible to offer this additional functionality on top
       
    41 of a `catgets' implementation.  Future versions of GNU `gettext' will
       
    42 very likely convey even more functionality.  So it might be a good idea
       
    43 to change to GNU `gettext' as soon as possible.
       
    44 
       
    45    So you need _not_ provide this option if you are using GNU libc 2 or
       
    46 you have installed a recent copy of the GNU gettext package with the
       
    47 included `libintl'.
       
    48 
       
    49 1.2 INSTALL Matters
       
    50 ===================
       
    51 
       
    52 Some packages are "localizable" when properly installed; the programs
       
    53 they contain can be made to speak your own native language.  Most such
       
    54 packages use GNU `gettext'.  Other packages have their own ways to
       
    55 internationalization, predating GNU `gettext'.
       
    56 
       
    57    By default, this package will be installed to allow translation of
       
    58 messages.  It will automatically detect whether the system already
       
    59 provides the GNU `gettext' functions.  If not, the included GNU
       
    60 `gettext' library will be used.  This library is wholly contained
       
    61 within this package, usually in the `intl/' subdirectory, so prior
       
    62 installation of the GNU `gettext' package is _not_ required.
       
    63 Installers may use special options at configuration time for changing
       
    64 the default behaviour.  The commands:
       
    65 
       
    66      ./configure --with-included-gettext
       
    67      ./configure --disable-nls
       
    68 
       
    69 will, respectively, bypass any pre-existing `gettext' to use the
       
    70 internationalizing routines provided within this package, or else,
       
    71 _totally_ disable translation of messages.
       
    72 
       
    73    When you already have GNU `gettext' installed on your system and run
       
    74 configure without an option for your new package, `configure' will
       
    75 probably detect the previously built and installed `libintl.a' file and
       
    76 will decide to use this.  This might not be desirable.  You should use
       
    77 the more recent version of the GNU `gettext' library.  I.e. if the file
       
    78 `intl/VERSION' shows that the library which comes with this package is
       
    79 more recent, you should use
       
    80 
       
    81      ./configure --with-included-gettext
       
    82 
       
    83 to prevent auto-detection.
       
    84 
       
    85    The configuration process will not test for the `catgets' function
       
    86 and therefore it will not be used.  The reason is that even an
       
    87 emulation of `gettext' on top of `catgets' could not provide all the
       
    88 extensions of the GNU `gettext' library.
       
    89 
       
    90    Internationalized packages usually have many `po/LL.po' files, where
       
    91 LL gives an ISO 639 two-letter code identifying the language.  Unless
       
    92 translations have been forbidden at `configure' time by using the
       
    93 `--disable-nls' switch, all available translations are installed
       
    94 together with the package.  However, the environment variable `LINGUAS'
       
    95 may be set, prior to configuration, to limit the installed set.
       
    96 `LINGUAS' should then contain a space separated list of two-letter
       
    97 codes, stating which languages are allowed.
       
    98 
       
    99 1.3 Using This Package
       
   100 ======================
       
   101 
       
   102 As a user, if your language has been installed for this package, you
       
   103 only have to set the `LANG' environment variable to the appropriate
       
   104 `LL_CC' combination.  Here `LL' is an ISO 639 two-letter language code,
       
   105 and `CC' is an ISO 3166 two-letter country code.  For example, let's
       
   106 suppose that you speak German and live in Germany.  At the shell
       
   107 prompt, merely execute `setenv LANG de_DE' (in `csh'),
       
   108 `export LANG; LANG=de_DE' (in `sh') or `export LANG=de_DE' (in `bash').
       
   109 This can be done from your `.login' or `.profile' file, once and for
       
   110 all.
       
   111 
       
   112    You might think that the country code specification is redundant.
       
   113 But in fact, some languages have dialects in different countries.  For
       
   114 example, `de_AT' is used for Austria, and `pt_BR' for Brazil.  The
       
   115 country code serves to distinguish the dialects.
       
   116 
       
   117    The locale naming convention of `LL_CC', with `LL' denoting the
       
   118 language and `CC' denoting the country, is the one use on systems based
       
   119 on GNU libc.  On other systems, some variations of this scheme are
       
   120 used, such as `LL' or `LL_CC.ENCODING'.  You can get the list of
       
   121 locales supported by your system for your country by running the command
       
   122 `locale -a | grep '^LL''.
       
   123 
       
   124    Not all programs have translations for all languages.  By default, an
       
   125 English message is shown in place of a nonexistent translation.  If you
       
   126 understand other languages, you can set up a priority list of languages.
       
   127 This is done through a different environment variable, called
       
   128 `LANGUAGE'.  GNU `gettext' gives preference to `LANGUAGE' over `LANG'
       
   129 for the purpose of message handling, but you still need to have `LANG'
       
   130 set to the primary language; this is required by other parts of the
       
   131 system libraries.  For example, some Swedish users who would rather
       
   132 read translations in German than English for when Swedish is not
       
   133 available, set `LANGUAGE' to `sv:de' while leaving `LANG' to `sv_SE'.
       
   134 
       
   135    Special advice for Norwegian users: The language code for Norwegian
       
   136 bokma*l changed from `no' to `nb' recently (in 2003).  During the
       
   137 transition period, while some message catalogs for this language are
       
   138 installed under `nb' and some older ones under `no', it's recommended
       
   139 for Norwegian users to set `LANGUAGE' to `nb:no' so that both newer and
       
   140 older translations are used.
       
   141 
       
   142    In the `LANGUAGE' environment variable, but not in the `LANG'
       
   143 environment variable, `LL_CC' combinations can be abbreviated as `LL'
       
   144 to denote the language's main dialect.  For example, `de' is equivalent
       
   145 to `de_DE' (German as spoken in Germany), and `pt' to `pt_PT'
       
   146 (Portuguese as spoken in Portugal) in this context.
       
   147 
       
   148 1.4 Translating Teams
       
   149 =====================
       
   150 
       
   151 For the Free Translation Project to be a success, we need interested
       
   152 people who like their own language and write it well, and who are also
       
   153 able to synergize with other translators speaking the same language.
       
   154 Each translation team has its own mailing list.  The up-to-date list of
       
   155 teams can be found at the Free Translation Project's homepage,
       
   156 `http://www.iro.umontreal.ca/contrib/po/HTML/', in the "National teams"
       
   157 area.
       
   158 
       
   159    If you'd like to volunteer to _work_ at translating messages, you
       
   160 should become a member of the translating team for your own language.
       
   161 The subscribing address is _not_ the same as the list itself, it has
       
   162 `-request' appended.  For example, speakers of Swedish can send a
       
   163 message to `sv-request@li.org', having this message body:
       
   164 
       
   165      subscribe
       
   166 
       
   167    Keep in mind that team members are expected to participate
       
   168 _actively_ in translations, or at solving translational difficulties,
       
   169 rather than merely lurking around.  If your team does not exist yet and
       
   170 you want to start one, or if you are unsure about what to do or how to
       
   171 get started, please write to `translation@iro.umontreal.ca' to reach the
       
   172 coordinator for all translator teams.
       
   173 
       
   174    The English team is special.  It works at improving and uniformizing
       
   175 the terminology in use.  Proven linguistic skill are praised more than
       
   176 programming skill, here.
       
   177 
       
   178 1.5 Available Packages
       
   179 ======================
       
   180 
       
   181 Languages are not equally supported in all packages.  The following
       
   182 matrix shows the current state of internationalization, as of May 2005.
       
   183 The matrix shows, in regard of each package, for which languages PO
       
   184 files have been submitted to translation coordination, with a
       
   185 translation percentage of at least 50%.

   962    Some counters in the preceding matrix are higher than the number of
       
   963 visible blocks let us expect.  This is because a few extra PO files are
       
   964 used for implementing regional variants of languages, or language
       
   965 dialects.
       
   966 
       
   967    For a PO file in the matrix above to be effective, the package to
       
   968 which it applies should also have been internationalized and
       
   969 distributed as such by its maintainer.  There might be an observable
       
   970 lag between the mere existence a PO file and its wide availability in a
       
   971 distribution.

   978 1.6 Using `gettext' in new packages
       
   979 ===================================
       
   980 
       
   981 If you are writing a freely available program and want to
       
   982 internationalize it you are welcome to use GNU `gettext' in your
       
   983 package.  Of course you have to respect the GNU Library General Public
       
   984 License which covers the use of the GNU `gettext' library.  This means
       
   985 in particular that even non-free programs can use `libintl' as a shared
       
   986 library, whereas only free software can use `libintl' as a static
       
   987 library or use modified versions of `libintl'.
       
   988 
       
   989    Once the sources are changed appropriately and the setup can handle
       
   990 the use of `gettext' the only thing missing are the translations.  The
       
   991 Free Translation Project is also available for packages which are not
       
   992 developed inside the GNU project.  Therefore the information given above
       
   993 applies also for every other Free Software Project.  Contact
       
   994 `translation@iro.umontreal.ca' to make the `.pot' files available to
       
   995 the translation teams.
