4 Preparing Program Sources
***************************
For the programmer, changes to the C source code fall into three
categories. First, you have to make the localization functions known to
all modules needing message translation. Second, you should properly
trigger the operation of GNU ‘gettext’ when the program initializes,
usually from the ‘main’ function. Last, you should identify, adjust and
mark all constant strings in your program needing translation.
