Thanks.
BTW (not extactly your question, but it's related) in my program ( http://www.gnu.org/software/liquidwar6/ ) I use a wrapper over gettext ( see src/funcs.c for code snippets). The idea is to handle charset conversions through gettext. I also use a quirk & dirty shell script: -----8<--------------------------- #!/bin/sh SCRIPT_DIR=../src/script C_FILE=../src/scriptpo.c find $SCRIPT_DIR -type f -a -name "*.scm" \ | xargs sed "s/^.*( *_ *\\(\\\".*\\\"\\) *).*\$/_(\1)\; \\/\\/ extracted by scriptpo-update.sh/g" \ | grep scriptpo-update.sh \ > $C_FILE -----8<--------------------------- to create a .c file which can then be processed by gettext tools. The idea is to create a dummy C file with contents like: _("my string"); // extracted by scriptpo-update.sh whenever there's a line in a scheme file with a construct of the form (_ "my string") This file is never compiled but gettext tools parse it, and this way you can use a po-style translation system for you Guile strings. This is lightweight code but it provides me with a translating framework which is "scheme-enabled" and very similar to what usually happens in C. It's easy to use: whenever you want something to be translated, and not bother about charsets, simply replace: "your string" with the form: (_ "your string") Period.
