Hi everybody,

I have released libintl-perl 1.00. The package provides message=20
translation facilities suitable for a framework using GNU gettext.=20
Invocation is quite similar to the way you use gettext() and friends in=20
other languages like C, C++ and so on.  The architecture also allows=20
seemless integration of internationalized Perl sources in mixed-language =

packages.

     perl -MCPAN -e 'install Locale::TextDomain'

You won't have much fun with the package, unless you have a deep look=20
into the READMEs included in the source tar ball.  You also shouldn't be =

afraid to build the latest CVS snapshot of GNU gettext from the sources. =

  Perl support is new in GNU gettext and not yet available in the=20
official releases.

I know that there are other packages with similar functionality and I=20
don't release libintl-perl because I think that my approach is better=20
than the others. My approach is different, has a different focus.  It=20
fits best for my requirements, so it might be the right solution for=20
you, too.

Hope you enjoy it.

Guido
