Continuing thread "application localization in Linux".
I've checked gettext package and seems to answer all our needs for
translating interface of our application on every possible platform.
Actually wikipedia gives a very short and clear explanation here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gettext
I am not sure but I think the gettext library is LGPL, only the tools are
GPL.
If it is GPL, I am happy, this shows the greatness of GPL, it forces free
software.
Keep in mind that GPL application does not mean free (as in free beer)
application. GPL application can be commercial.

I agree that GPL is great and know that GPL applications can be
commercial. The problem is that it demands to publish your application's
source code which is not acceptable in most commercial applications.
But yes, as gettext site says it: libintl and libasprintf libraries are
LGPL, executab
