Building and maintaining translations for EPGSearch
---------------------------------------------------

If your language is not yet supported in EPGSearch or any 
updates are needed it would be great if you could give your 
support for this. 

To do so please follow these steps:

1. Check if there is a current beta version of EPGSearch at

   http://winni.vdr-developer.org/epgsearch/downloads/beta

   If not please use the latest known release.

2. Copy the original po file for your language to any backup 
   destination. Now edit the original po file for your language in 
   the po subdirectory. All entries with 'msgstr ""' should be filled 
   with your translation.

3. To test your translations:
   in vdr > 1.5.6: 
   simply recompile EPGSearch and check your changes.
   in vdr < 1.5.7: 
   for backwards compatibility the translation is built from the 
   po files. To do so call

   make generate-i18n

   from EPGSearch's source directory and then recompile EPGSearch.
   (this calls buildutil/pot2i18n.pl which may need to install Locale::PO 
   in the pearl cpan shell)

4. When done please send me your po file or even better a patch for it,
   created like

   cd po
   diff -Nru /path-to-backup-po-file/x.po x.po > epgsearch_x.diff


Many thanks for your support
