5 you need to do to create a .pot is running
6
7 % cd po/
8 % python createpot.py

10 Then you edit the *.pot and rename it following the locale
11 convention.

13 Following the GTK+ reference[1], there is a msgid "translator-credits"
14 where you should put your name and email so you receive credit for
15 your work on the credits tab of the about dialog. It's also important
16 to place your information on the Last-translator "header" of the .po
17 file. If you don't fill this fields your translation will be accepted,
18 but it will be harder to give you credit.
