Well, I've finally gotten around to processing SF patch #736940, which
wraps Optik's small collection of literal strings in _(), so gettext can
translate them if the right infrastructure is present.  It's not checked
in, but the tests still pass, so it should be fine.

If I understand things correctly, that means Optik is now
internationalized.  Woo-hoo.  Now comes the interesting bit:
localization.  I don't think Optik should install its own message
catalog, but I would at least like to make .po files available for
internationalized Optik-based applications.

So: does anyone out there have experience translating strings using the
gettext tools, and are you willing to help out?  It shouldn't be too
hard; Optik only has 19 strings in it!  Please let me know --

        Greg

I wonder if I ought to tell them about my PREVIOUS LIFE as a COMPLETE
STRANGER?
