Locale::Maketext

Locale::Maketext is a base class providing a framework for localization and inheritance-based lexicons, as described in my article in The Perl Journal #13 (a corrected version of which appears in this dist).

PREREQUISITES

This suite requires Perl 5. It also requires a recent version of I18N::LangTags. MSWin users should also get Win32::Locale. File::Findgrep is also useful example code, as is the rather larger Apache::MP3 source (even if you don't run Apache).

INSTALLATION

You install Locale::Maketext, as you would install any Perl module distribution, by running these commands:

perl Makefile.PL
make
make test
make install

If you want to install a private copy of Maketext in your home directory, then you should try to produce the initial Makefile with something like this command:

perl Makefile.PL LIB=~/perl

See perldoc perlmodinstall for more information.

DOCUMENTATION

See the pod in Locale::Maketext and Locale::Maketext::TPJ13, and see also File::Findgrep.

SUPPORT

Questions, bug reports, useful code bits, and suggestions for Worms should be sent to me at sburke@cpan.org

AVAILABILITY

The latest version of Locale::Maketext is available from the Comprehensive Perl Archive Network (CPAN). Visit <http://www.perl.com/CPAN/> to find a CPAN site near you.
