how to translate software into other languages

[Raphael Zulliger <zulli mail izh ch>]

hi

i'm new to this list and also new to create software...

i've got a genereal question: i've programmed a little program now
someone has asked me to translate the software into an other language.
i'm not sure but i think there is a directory called po (i generated the
gui with glade) and i think this directory is responsible for other
languages. but i've no idea how to handle this...

does anybody know of a tutorial, a howto or something else where i can
get information about this topic? or could anybody give me a short
introduction (but very basic please)?


thanks!
