I have translated a few programs until now, but all the time i ve been using pot files. I was thinking about using the gettext libs to implement the translation. I think the text file is straigth forward, but with some tools, like gtranslator and kbabel, newbies could translate/merge the files easily.
What do you think about the idea???
Pot Files for translation
I think it isn't such a great idea, as using gettext or any other library is going to add a deppendency for a Unix library. This would mean M$ Windows/Mac OS users/... might have a problem running the game, compiling the game or adjusting the game (as it would be another tool requiered for a developer)
Maybe we could write a conversion program?
