This directory contains simple examples of the use of GNU gettext. Each example is a simple "hello world" program with a very small message catalog, written in a particular programming language for a particular environment.

Build and install the GNU gettext package, as described in the INSTALL file. 2. cd to the example and do ./autogen.sh 3. Then you can build the example as usual: ./configure --prefix=/some/prefix make make install and see it work by executing /some/prefix/bin/hello
