Description:read gettext MO files directly, without requiring anything other than PHP The GNU gettext library is a widely used localization library, but in order to use it with the PHP language, the system has to support the desired locale, and library itself must be installed. . Since this is not always the case, PHP-gettext has been developed to be able to read gettext MO files directly, without requiring anything other than PHP. . Currently, it's usable if you develop most of the infrastructure for choosing language on your own, because it's possible to use both gettext() and ngettext() calls. In the near future, it should also be fully compatible drop-in replacement for all of gettext functionality written in PHP. Homepage: https://launchpad.net/php-gettext/
