    2.67.2 Description

    ed9de5
    a6f1b3

    This command looks for <samp>`.sh'</samp> files inside Bash directory and

    a6f1b3
    extracts translatable strings from files, using xgettext
    a6f1b3
    command, in order to create a portable object template
    a6f1b3
    (<tt>`centos-art.sh.pot'</tt>) file for them.
    a6f1b3

    a6f1b3

    With the <tt>`centos-art.sh.pot'</tt> file up to date, the

    a6f1b3
    centos-art command removes the temporal list of files sotred
    a6f1b3
    inside <tt>`/tmp'</tt> directory and checks the current language of your
    a6f1b3
    user's session to create a portable object file for it, in the
    a6f1b3
    location <tt>`$CLI_LANG/$CLI_LANG.po'</tt>. 
    a6f1b3

    a6f1b3

    The CLI_LANG variable discribes the locale language used to

    a6f1b3
    output messages inside centos-art command. The locale
    a6f1b3
    language used inside centos-art command is taken from the
    a6f1b3
    LANG environment variable.  The CLI_LANG variable has the
    a6f1b3
    <samp>`LL_CC'</samp> format, where <samp>`LL'</samp> is a language code from the
    a6f1b3
    ISO-639 standard, and <samp>`CC'</samp> a country code from the ISO-3166
    a6f1b3
    standard.
    a6f1b3

    a6f1b3

    The LANG environment variable is set when you do log in to your

    a6f1b3
    system. If you are using a graphical session, change language to your
    a6f1b3
    native language and do login. That would set and exoprt the LANG
    a6f1b3
    environment variable to the correct value. On the other side, if you
    a6f1b3
    are using a text session edit your <tt>`~/.bash_profile'</tt> file to set
    a6f1b3
    and export the LANG environment variable to your native locale
    a6f1b3
    as defines the locale -a command output; do logout, and do
    a6f1b3
    login again.
    a6f1b3

    a6f1b3

    At this point, the LANG environment variable has the appropriate

    a6f1b3
    value you need, in order to translate centos-art.sh messages
    a6f1b3
    to your native language (the one set in LANG environment
    a6f1b3
    variable). 
    a6f1b3

    a6f1b3

    With the <tt>`$CLI_LANG/$CLI_LANG.po'</tt> file up to date, the

    a6f1b3
    centos-art opens it for you to update translation strings.
    a6f1b3
    The centos-art command uses the value of EDITOR
    a6f1b3
    environment variable to determine your favorite text editor. If no
    a6f1b3
    value is defined on EDITOR, the <tt>`/usr/bin/vim'</tt> text editor
    a6f1b3
    is used as default.
    a6f1b3

    a6f1b3

    When you finishd PO file edition and quit text editor, the

    a6f1b3
    centos-art command creates the related machine object in the
    a6f1b3
    location <tt>`$CLI_LANG/LC_MESSAGES/$TEXTDOMAIN.mo'</tt>.
    a6f1b3

    a6f1b3

    At this point, all translations you made in the PO file should be

    a6f1b3
    available to your language when runing centos-art.sh script. 
    a6f1b3

    a6f1b3

    In order to make the centos-art.sh internationalization, the

    a6f1b3
    centos-art.sh script was modified as described in the
    a6f1b3
    gettext info documentation (info gettext).  You
    a6f1b3
    can find such modifications in the following files:
