This is the README file for Locale::Maketext::Lexicon, a module providing lexicon-handling backends, for "Locale::Maketext" to read from other localization formats, such as PO files, MO files, or from databases via the "Tie" interface. For extracting translatable strings from source files, a "xgettext.pl" utility is also installed by default. You can also read my presentation "Web Localization in Perl" online at http://www.autrijus.org/webl10n/. It gives an overview for the localization process, features a comparison between Gettext, Msgcat and Maketext, and talks about my experiences at localizing web applications based on HTML::Mason and the Template Toolkit. * Installation Locale::Maketext::Lexicon uses the standard perl module install process: cpansign -v # see the SIGNATURE file for details perl Makefile.PL make make test make install * Copyright Copyright 2002, 2003, 2004 by Autrijus Tang <autrijus@autrijus.org>.
