Rework read_*_option(): - read_u?int_option() now interpret a value of "true" as 1 - read_bool_option() now interpret any value different from 0 as true. - make functions return TRUE on successful read, FALSE else Theses changes will help to maintain compatibility when options are modified.

Translators create a translation by creating the appropriate .po file in the /po
directory. Please see the gettext info pages for an overview and instructions.
Basically: Add your language code to the   ALL_LINGUAS=   line in configure.in,
then get started translating the strings in your ??.po file.
Note: The strings for debug output is intentionally not marked for translation.

To update a specific translation, one may use make update-po PO=[lang]  (ie. make update-po PO=fr).

To update all translation files, use make update-po.
You should only use it when needed (before a release or when there were many
changes in source code).



Helper scripts:
