SliTaz tools                                                               2014

The SliTaz tools package provides many tinyutils and shared and custom
configuration files designed to improve SliTaz. The tools were initially
created to help people build their own distribution by following the SliTaz
Cookbook, now the package mostly provides all the configuration tools and
all home-made GTK boxes such as subox, tazbox, etc.

The package also provides some scripts (firewall), desktop files with their
icons, and the licenses and examples to help hackers or users understand and
manage SliTaz.


More tools information
-----------------------
You will find README files for some tools:

    * tazbox/README
    * tazdrop/README


Installation
------------
The tools are split into 2 separate packages: one with only ncurses dependencies
(for a text system) and one with GTK dependencies (for a graphical system). So
we have to make install and make default to compile PO files. Install supports
DESTDIR for packaging:

# make
# make install
# make install-boxes


Translation
-----------
To start a new translation please use msginit from the pot file directory.
Example for French/France locale (fr_FR):

	$ msginit -l fr_FR -o fr.po -i tazbox.pot

To update all pot files when some new strings have been added (mainly for
developers before commit):

	$ make pot

To update all translations from the pot file:

	$ make msgmerge

To compile po files for testing purposes you can use 'make msgfmt' or manually
compile your translation. Example for french locale, note that the file must
be copied into /usr/share/locale/fr/LC_MESSAGES so gettext can find it:

	$ msgfmt -o tazbox.mo fr.po
