+ How To Add Support For A New Locale
+
+ 1) Append the ISO locale code, as either xx or xx_YY, to the
+ ${OTHER} macro definition in the file "Makefile". Below,
+ we will refer to the new locale as ${LANG}.
+
+ 2) Create a .PO file for the locale by typing the command:
+
+ $ make ${LANG}.po
+
+ 3) Add the translations using your favorite .PO file editor,
+ such as kbable(1) or gtranslator(1).
+
+ 4) Review your updated XML file using the command:
+
+ $ make xml-${LANG}
+
+ and reviewing the file "entities-${LANG}.xml" for
+ correctness.
+
+ 5) Repeat steps #3 and #4 until a correct XML file is
+ produced.
+
+ 6) Produce the final output file, "entities-${LANG}.ent" by
+ using the command:
+
+ $ make
+
+ and reviewing the results.
