[Daintrees <p.d...@pa...>]

I have been doing a little research ...

http://www.appliedlanguage.com/articles/internationalization_using_php_and_get_text.shtml

actually wrapping all strings in the gettext() function allows the strings
to be extracted automatically - this seems like a huge bonus to me. I think
I will experiment a bit and see if I can get a couple of scripts going - the
only real downer with this is that I only speak english perhaps I could give
my .po file to Rom to translate so we can see how a few scripts work.

It seems pretty straightforward!
