[gaim-migrate @ 6900] we can't use the display pref to check for whether to update or not because if we have the pref off, then the icon changes, and then we turn on the pref, we'd still have the initial icon. yeah. hey, it made sense in _my_ head. committer: Tailor Script <[e-mail]>

Translation README

Updated: 19-April-2003
------------------

To supply a new translation, you first need a copy of gaim.pot.
This can be built by typing:

./update.pl --pot

from the gaim/po/ directory.

To update an exsting translation, type:

./update.pl LANG

where LANG is the language code to update, such as fr or ja. This will build
a new gaim.pot and update the translation with the changes. You may then
begin editing the updated file.

New or updated translations should be sent to the gaim-devel listserv
(see http://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/gaim-devel)

Please check your translations carefully. Make sure you have the same
number of newlines and %s or other formatting codes in the translation as
you have in the original.
