Module Locale.Gettext

Description

This module enables access to localization functions from within Pike.

Note

The message conversion functions in this module do not handle Unicode strings. They only provide thin wrappers to gettext(3) etc, which means strings are assumed to be encoded according to the LC_* and LANG variables. See the docs for gettext(3) for details.
