This folder contains po and pot files, who are templates that allows you to translate AlternC in any language.

1. How to add a language : 
- create a folder named with your iso language code : ex: de_DE for German from Germany. 
- create a subfolder LC_MESSAGES in this folder
- copy .po and .pot files and rename .pot to .po
- Translate them ;) 

2. How to update language files.
When the programm is updated, the po and pot files in locales/ are changed to reflect the new developped features.
You can launch 

./updatelang.sh <languagecode> 

from "locales/" to update your language po files. New strings will have an empty "msgstr" value.
example : 

./updatelang.sh fr_FR
