     4 Using a translation

     5 -----------------------------------------------------------------------

     6 

     7 All available translations can be found in the locale directory in the

     8 poweradmin base directory. The Dutch translation for example, can be

     9 found in nl_NL. To review the status of the translation, you can have a

    10 look at the nl.po file in the LC_MESSAGE directory.

    11 

    12 If you want to use a translation, say the nl_NL, all you have to do is 

    13 edit inc/i18n.php file and change the $language variable to the desired

    14 language, for example "nl_NL".

    15 

    16 If this doesn't work, your system isn't setup properly.

    19 Adding a new translation

    20 -----------------------------------------------------------------------

    21 

    22 If you want to create a new translation you can do the following. For

    23 example, if you want to create a Dutch translation:

    24  

    25  - cd /path/to/poweradmin/

    26  - mkdir -p locale/nl_NL/LC_MESSAGES/

    27  - cp docs/template.pot locale/nl_NL/LC_MESSAGES/nl.po

    28  - cd locale/nl_NL/LC_MESSAGES/

    29  - vim nl.po

    30  - msgfmt nl.po -o message.mo

    31 

    32 

    33 Updating the translation template file

    34 -----------------------------------------------------------------------

    35 

    36 If creating a new translation and you are not sure if the template file

    37 that was provided in the distribution, you may want to re-create the 

    38 template file. To do so, do the following:

    39 

    40 

    41  - cd /path/to/poweradmin/

    42  - xgettext --no-wrap -o docs/template.pot *.php inc/*.php

    43 

    44 The last command updates the template file in docs/ directory.
