Re: [Gretl-devel] p.s. (minor issues)

Quick guide (assuming you're using linux and you have cvs access): Move to the root directory of you gretl source tree. The relevant string occurs in both the cli and gui versions, so it must be either in a file in lib/src/ or on plugin/. You can look for it by doing grep -n "Close output file" lib/src/*.c plugin/*.c and you would have seen lib/src/interact.c:3005: pprintf(prn, "Closed output file '%s'\n", outname); Ok, found. So you open up an editor of your choice (Allin and I both use emacs, but it's fairly irrelevant here), you navigate to line 3005 of lib/src/interact.c, and you mark the string for translation by changing pprintf(prn, "Closed output file '%s'\n", outname); to pprintf(prn, _("Closed output file '%s'\n"), outname); This will mark the string for translation. Now compile gretl to make sure everything works. If there are no problems, you can obtain a diff file by doing (again, from your root gretl dir) cvs diff -u -rHEAD lib/src/interact.c > ~/mypatch.diff and you should find, in your home directory, a file mypatch.diff you can sen to Allin.
