Testing your localization on Mac OS X
=====================================
tar xvzf gettext-macosx.tar.gz
Use the convert-po.sh script attached :
- setenv PATH gettext-macosx:$PATH
- setenv DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=gettext-macosx
+ export PATH=gettext-macosx:$PATH
+ export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=gettext-macosx
./convert-po.sh <LANG>.po
