+++ Translating Midori +++

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

First enable localization file updates when building:

./waf configure --enable-update-po && ./waf build

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

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.
