As was discussed on the e-intl list, and as I mentioned to devilhorns on IRC yesterday, I've started writing patches to support i18n in e_modules.
The attached file is for screenshot. The following commands should do the trick
$ cd e_modules/screenshot
$ tar zxf screenshot_i18n.tar.gz
$ patch -p0 <screenshot.patch
$ rm screenshot.patch
There are some new files to be cvs added:
ABOUT-NLS
po/
po/Makefile.am
po/ja.po (this was just for testing - it only contains one japanese string so far)
Also, the copyright-holder="TODO" value in autogen.sh should be fixed appropriately
As translations come in later, the new language will need to be added to the ALL_LINGUAS variable in configure.in. Currently only "ja" is present.
Here are 4 more module i18n patches:
http://www.geocities.jp/david_at_tokyo/e17/tmp/calendar_i18n.tar.gz
http://www.geocities.jp/david_at_tokyo/e17/tmp/monitor_i18n.tar.gz
http://www.geocities.jp/david_at_tokyo/e17/tmp/mount_i18n.tar.gz
http://www.geocities.jp/david_at_tokyo/e17/tmp/slideshow_i18n.tar.gz
Same drill as with the screenshot module, each tarball contains the new files plus a patch file to be deleted after application.
These patches use a gettext macro of D_( ) for module-specific strings, and strings that are present in enlightenment's message catalog can be left wrapped in _( ) as usual. I've tried to update all the module specific strings accordingly, but any mistakes should get flushed out when our translators start to translate.
For new translators who don't know - note there is a separate mailing list for sending in your .po files.
