/** @page translation Translations / Internationalization @section lang-available Available Languages The development, documentation and default application language of gds-render is English. Translations of GUI and console output exist for the following locales/languages - de German (Deutsch) - ja Japanese (日本語) (Work in progess) On how to add new languages, see @ref lang-add @section lang-internals Internals This progamm uses gettext for translations. @subsection lang-coding Make Strings Translatable in Code Only strings, that are marked as translatable are actually available for translation and shown in the user's language. All other text is displayed as written in the source files. @subsubsection lang-add-glade Make GUI Elements in Glade Files Translatable Text inside Glade's GUI files can be made translatable by checking the *translatable* option for the specific text property. The following image shows the label property of a button. Notice the checked Translatable option. @image html translate-glade.png @image latex translate-glade.png @subsubsection lang-add-c Make C Strings Translatable In order to make strings in C code translatable, the following header has to be included: @code #inlcude @endcode This header provides a few macros useful for translation. The most important one is the function-like macro @code _("Text here") @endcode which is just a underline character. You can use this marco to encapsulate all static strings that shall be translated. The whole expression is still usable like any other string (except for compile time concatenation, like: "This is foo" " and this is bar") Example: @code printf(_("The value of foo is %d\n"), foo); @endcode Text that must not be translated can be encapsulated inside a N_ macro like @code N_("This has to stay in English") @endcode The N_ macro is basically an empty macro and just for visualization. @subsection lang-add Add a New Language */
