FormEncode Internationalization (gettext)
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

:author: Gregor Horvath <gh at gregor-horvath dot com> 2006

There are different translation options available:

Domain "FormEncode" 
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

for standalone use of FormEncode. The language to use is determined out of the local system (see gettext documentation http://docs.python.org/lib/node733.html). Optionally you can also set the language or the domain explicitly with the function.

example:
formencode.api.set_stdtranslation(domain="FormEncode", languages=["de"])

The mo files are located in the i18n subdirectory of the formencode installation.

state._
^^^^^^^
A custom _ gettext function provided as attribute of the state object.

__builtins__._
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
A custom _ gettext function provided in the builtin namespace.
This function is only used when:

Validator.use_builtin_gettext == True (True is default)


Without translation
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

If no translation mechanism is found a fallback returns the plain string.
