It's a full implementation of gettext, as example one string is translating. Work to do: the compilation part (generate the .pot, .po, generate the .mo, etc.). If you have knnowledge about autotools please, feel free (I can give some help about "what has to do", but I have had no time to implement and I'm not familiar on it). Even, the scripts in Bash are translated (well, some strings, as example, after comiting the infrastructure I will add the tranlsation to other parts...)
