-This directory contains translations for the options of the SANE backends.
-They are only used if the gettext tools are found by configure.
-You will need GNU gettext: xgettext, msgfmt and msgmerge. The translations
-are used at least by the frontends XSane and quiteinsane.
-
-
-Users: I want to just read the description of SANE options in my language
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-Use XSane (>=0.90) or your favourite frontend that supports translations, read
-the documentation and set the environment variable LANG to your local setting.
-Example for German: export LANG=de_DE ; xsane
-
-
-Translators: I want to update existing translations
----------------------------------------------------
-
-* cd po ; make update
-* Edit lang.po, add/change translations. (with lang = your
-  language, e.g. "de"). You need an editor that is capable of using the
-  encoding UTF8 (unicode).
-* Add your name to the header. Update the "last translator" field.
-* make ; make install
-
-
-Translators: I want to add a new language
------------------------------------------
-
-* Edit po/LINGUAS, add your language to ALL_LINGUAS.
-* Run automake -OR- update po/Makefile.in accordingly by hand.
-* ./configure
-* Go ahead with "I want to update existing translations".
-
-
-Backend developers: I want to add internationalization support for my backend
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-* Edit the source code of the backend and add SANE_I18N to the appropriate
-  strings. Mark the descriptions (desc) and titles of options with
-  SANE_I18N(). Do the same for string lists used in options. The name of
-  options must NOT be marked. Do NOT mark macros. Especially you don't need
-  to mark standard option strings like SANE_TITLE_NUM_OPTIONS as this is
-  already done in saneopts.h.
-  Examples: s->opt[5].title = SANE_I18N("Enhancement");
-            #define STANDARD_FORMAT SANE_I18N("a4 Paper")
-* Edit po/POTFILES. Add all source code files that contain strings marked
-  by SANE_I18N() to that file.
-* If you want to also add a new language, see above.
-* ./configure
-* See "Update existing translations" or "Add a new language".

-Frontend developers: I want to add internationalization support for my frontend
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-* The Makefile installs files called "sane-backends.mo" in the directory
-  "$(prefix)/share/locale/lang/LC_MESSAGES/", e.g.:
-  "/usr/local/share/locale/de/LC_MESSAGES/sane-backends.mo". For every
-  language exactly one .mo file is installed. Earlier releases of
-  sane-backends installed one file per backend, e.g. sane-umax.mo. For
-  backward compatibility, frontends may want to check for these files, also.
-* As mentioned above, GNU gettext is used. 
-* With other NLS implementations, converting the mo files may work.

-Bugs:
-- Using sed to include macros into *.pot isn't nice.
