Translation:
To make translations to other languages, follow these steps:

1. Use the following to extract the raw message catalog
     pygettext gonvert
     edit messages.txt to CHARSET=utf-8

2, Give the messages.pot file to the translater person
    See http://www.unicode.org/charts/ for unicode translations
    To get a defined character, use  \N{Character_name}, for example:
         \N{SKULL AND CROSSBONES}
            or 
         u'\u2620'

3. Get the files back from the translator person:
     pl_messages.po   the translated message file
     pl_messages.gmo  the compiled translation, which was compiled with something like:
                         msgfmt gonvert.po

4. Install the .gmo file in /usr/share/locale/xx/LC_MESSAGES using:
   # make install_pl

5. To update a translation use the following:
     msgmerge -U i18n/pl_messages.po messages.pot
   Merged results go into the source file.
   Compile the new translation
     msgfmt i18n/pl_messages.po -oi18n/pl_messages.gmo

7. Test by setting the LANGUAGE variable appropriately, then run gonvert.
   LANGUAGE=pl
      or
   LANGUAGE=en
