10.6 gawk Can Speak Your Language
As of version 3.1, gawk itself has been internationalized
using the GNU gettext package.
(GNU gettext is described in
complete detail in
@xref{Top}.)
(GNU gettext is described in
complete detail in
GNU gettext tools.)
As of this writing, the latest version of GNU gettext is
version 0.11.1.
If a translation of gawk's messages exists,
then gawk produces usage messages, warnings,
and fatal errors in the local language.
On systems that do not use version 2 (or later) of the GNU C library, you should
configure gawk with the `--with-included-gettext' option
before compiling and installing it.
See section B.2.2 Additional Configuration Options,
for more information.
