4When this module is imported, ASE-GUI will use translations depending 

5on system settings. Usually language is taken from the LANG or LANGUAGE 

6environment variables. Examples of how to override the system locale: 

7 

8 LANG=da_DK.UTF-8 ase gui (Danish) 

9 LANGUAGE=da_DK.UTF-8 ase gui (Danish; normally overrides LANG) 

10 LANG=C ase gui (bare-bones ASCII locale disabling translations) 

11 

12Other languages: es_ES.UTF-8, en_UK.UTF-8, ... 

13 

14The encoding and/or country code can be omitted on most systems/languages. 

15 

16Translations will be loaded from the mo-files when possible. See ase/gui/po. 

17 

18All modules that need translations should import _ from here, 

19along with ngettext if they want to translate messages with plurals 

20(e.g. "Save 1 file", "Save %d files")."""
