Hello Alex, On 10-Jan-99 23:54:55, you wrote: >I've written a small PHP module which wraps the GNU gettext library, libintl. >It provides wrappers for the most commonly used gettext functions, making >i18n of PHP3 scripts very easy. I've been writing fully localized software for about 7 years. Today, most of the software that I write with PHP is fully localized, ie, the text of the messages and other details are fetched at runtime depending on the application user's locale. I heard about gettext but I never got right what is the advantage of using it as opposed of having global arrays with the pertinent locale definitions. I wonder if you could explain in detail about the advantages of using gettext.
