Package: pointerize (0.6 and others)

Internationalization utilities, based on gettext

pointerize is a set of tools used to generate message catalogs from a set of specially formated C source files. Those message catalogs are loaded at run-time, making it possible to have one binary that displays messages in several languages.

It's based on gettext, but it makes smaller binary message catalogs (a must when one is making internationalized boot floppies). The programmer may use his gettexttified C source files just applying one small change to the main() function. The translator will work with the well known PO format.
