+++ Translating Midori +++

If you want to translate Midori, you need a few preparations.

First create/ update the localization template:

./waf build --update-po

Running this command again will also update all translations
as needed, according to changes in the template.

If you want to add a new language 'aa', create it like this:

cd po
msginit -l aa_CC -o aa.po -i midori.pot
sed -i 's/PACKAGE/midori/g' aa.po

To check your language 'aa' for errors, do this:

msgfmt -c --check-accelerators=_ aa.po

As a general rule, your localization should be based off of the
current state of the git repository.

Some strings have comments, starting with 'i18n', which are meant
to describe the role of a string to translators.
Please don't hesitate to ask for additional descriptive comments
for any unclear strings that you are uncertain about.
