+<para>
+The Catalog Manager merges two folders into one tree and displays
+all the <acronym>PO</acronym> and <acronym>POT</acronym> files in
+these folders. The display allows you to easily see if a new
+template has been added or an old one has been removed. Some
+information is shown along with each file name: total number of
+entries, number of fuzzy entries, number of untranslated entries, the
+date of the last revision and the last translator of the file.
+</para>
+
+<important><para>
+KBabel's Catalog Manager is meant for projects structured like KDE,
+where the <acronym>POT</acronym> and <acronym>PO</acronym> files
+share a same name, save the extensions. However this is not the
+case of &GNU; projects and of many projects structured like &GNU; ones.
+Typically in such projects, the <acronym>PO</acronym> file is named
+following the language code and so is very different than the name
+of the <acronym>POT</acronym> files. Also such projects have
+one <acronym>POT</acronym> file sharing a directory with all its
+translated <acronym>PO</acronym> files. Unfortunately, all these reasons
+mean that the Catalog Manager is <emphasis>not</emphasis> suitable for
+such projects. (See <ulink url="http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=76495">KDE bug #76495</ulink>.)

+<para>Translation database allows you to store translations in a
+database based on Berkeley Database IV, &ie; it is stored in a binary
+file on your disk. The database guarantees fast searching in a large
+number of translations.</para>
+
+<para>This mode is the one best integrated with &kbabel;. Besides

+</listitem>
+</itemizedlist>
+
+<para>Of course, the more translations are stored in the database, the
+more productive you can be. To fill the database, you can use the

+ </varlistentry>
+<varlistentry>
+ <term><guibutton>Remove context comment</guibutton></term>

+ </varlistentry>
+ <varlistentry>
+ <term><guilabel>Character to be ignored</guilabel></term>

+ </listitem>
+ </varlistentry>
+ </variablelist>
+<para>
+The <guilabel>Search</guilabel> tab contains finer specification for searching the text.
+You can define how to search and also allows to use another special way of searching
+called <emphasis><guilabel>Word substitution</guilabel></emphasis>. By substituting
+one or two words the approximate text can be found as well. For example, assume you

+The usage is very simple. You select a module to in the
+<guilabel>Search in module</guilabel> combo-box.
+Then you enter the phrase to lookup and press <guibutton>Start
+Search</guibutton>. All found messages are shown in the list
+below, which is the same as a tool in the &kbabel; main window.
+Searching can be stopped by pressing <guilabel>Stop</guilabel>.
+In case you want to search in translated text, not in original English message,
+you should use <guilabel>Search in translations</guilabel>.

+showing/hiding the module settings or displaying a dialog with credits for
+&kbabeldict; and the modules themselves.

+<title>Global and project settings</title>
+
+<para>
+From KBabel 1.10 (KDE 3.4) on, KBabel has the concept of projects and therefore
+the settings have been split in two categories:
+the global settings and the project settings (also called project configuration).
+</para>
+
+<important><para>
+&GNU; gettext uses a term called "project", which has nothing to do with
+KBabel's projects. &GNU; gettext means by project an application which is
+related to the <acronym>PO</acronym> file. For KBabel, a project is
+much bigger. It can mean a set of applications, like &kde;.
+</para></important>
+
+<para>
+KBabel has <emphasis>always</emphasis> a current project, even if it is the
+default project. KBabel has not mode without any project. A project is always
+for KBabel's editor and KBabel's catalog manager.
+</para>
+
+
+<sect2 id="preferences-limitations">
+<title>Known limitations of the current implementation</title>
+
+<para>
+Unfortunately the current implementation of projects has a few known problems.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+An example is that in the global settings, there is no setting for the default user,
+his/her default language and other similar important global user data. It means that such
+data must be entered again each time that a new project is created.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+Another problem is the new project wizard. It does not ask enough information, especially
+it fails to ask for the team email address. So it is recommended to check the project
+settings after having run the wizard.
+</para>
+
+<tip><para>
+Currently you cannot copy projects from inside KBabel, so apparently you cannot easily share good settings.
+However you are free to copy the project outside KBabel and to load the copied project into KBabel.
+</para></tip>
+
+</sect2>
+
+<sect2 id="preferences-non-kde-projects">
+<title>Using KBabel for non-&kde; projects</title>
+
+<para>
+While &kbabel;'s defaults are oriented toward working with and for &kde;, &kbabel; can be used
+to translate <acronym>PO</acronym> files of other projects. However mostly you will have to tweak the
+settings to the need of your project. This is especially true for &GNU; and
+&GNU;-like projects, which need quite different defaults than for &kde;.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+One problem is that &kbabel; is relatively agressive when saving <acronym>PO</acronym> files and
+replaces setting of the <acronym>PO</acronym> files by settings of the projects, if not told otherwise.
+This might look very strange to somebody not used to &kde;. However &kde; has 900+
+<acronym>POT</acronym> files to translate for the <acronym>GUI</acronym> messages only.
+So for such a task, much automatisation is wanted. Taking time to set a project
+is little compared to the time gained thereafter. Of course, as non-&kde; user, you
+might be less fortunate. You need to do more settings, as the defaults are not entirely suitable
+and you will not gain much by doing many translations, as &GNU; projects have typically
+only one <acronym>POT</acronym> file to translate.
+</para>

+To show the Preferences dialog choose
+<menuchoice><guimenu>Settings</guimenu> <guimenuitem>Configure
+KBabel...</guimenuitem></menuchoice> from &kbabel;'s menu. It uses a
+structured configuration dialog which makes it very easy to find an
+option without having to perform an extensive search for it.
+</para>
+
+<sect2 id="preferences-editor">
+<title>Edit</title>
+<para>
+The editor preferences category is divided in 3 subwindows:
+<guilabel>General</guilabel>, <guilabel>Appearance</guilabel>,

+<para>This section contains a set of checkboxes.</para>

+<para>The first checkbox in the upper side sets if the fuzzy status is

+editor. When this option is disabled you have to manually choose
+<menuchoice><guimenu>Edit</guimenu><guimenuitem>Unset Fuzzy Status
+</guimenuitem></menuchoice> or use the <keycombo
+action="simul">&Ctrl;<keycap>U</keycap></keycombo> shortcut. Note
+that this means the string <literal>, fuzzy</literal> is removed from
+the entry's comment.</para>
+
+<para>Next option allows you to enable <quote>clever</quote> editing,
+where editor automatically inserts special characters escaped
+correctly, &eg; <literal>\t</literal> after pressing
+<keycap>Tab</keycap> and it allows special handling of
+<keycap>Enter</keycap>.</para>
+
+<para>
+The lower checkboxes are very useful in assisting, not for the
+correctness of the translation, but if the translated string
+is a suitable replacement for the original. For
+example, many messages represent menu items with keyboard accelerator
+and C-like formatted strings whose structure must remain intact once
+translated.

+<para>
+In most cases the default path patterns should be enough, whatever
+the project is for KDE (assuming that you have set the correct base directory)
+or if the project is a &GNU; one (or structured like a &GNU; project).
+</para>
+
+<note><para>
+For &kde;, some <acronym>PO</acronym> files do not contain enough information
+(including the file path and name) for &kbabel; to find the right source file
+that is supposed to be refered. To fix that you would need precise path patterns
+for such files, which is nearly impossible to define by the numbers of such files
+in &kde;. But if you work often with such a file, may be it is worth to set
+a path pattern explicitely for supporting that <acronym>PO</acronym> file.
+</para></note>
+
+<para>
+For creating your own path patterns, you can use the variables defined above,
+but apart <userinput>@COMMENTPATH@</userinput> not any variable is mandatory to use.
+(To be exact, <userinput>@COMMENTPATH@</userinput> is not mandatory either,
+but not using it will probably lead to no result.)
+</para>
+
+<para>
+An example of path pattern could be that you want to display the source reference
+of &kde;'s file desktop_kdebase.po. In that case you will probably need a path pattern like:
+<userinput>@CODEROOT@</userinput>/<userinput>@PACKAGEDIR@</userinput>/kdebase/<userinput>@COMMENTPATH@</userinput>
+(compared to one of the default path patterns, the sequence <userinput>@PACKAGE@</userinput> has been
+replaced by kdebase).
+</para>
+
+<para>
+In case of really complex problems you can, of course, define an absolute path
+without any variables beside <userinput>@COMMENTPATH@</userinput>, like for example:
+/home/usr/kde-source/kdebase/<userinput>@COMMENTPATH@</userinput> assuming that
+/home/usr/kde-source/kdebase is the path where the kdebase source module is.

+<sect1 id="using-introduction">
+<title>Introduction</title>
+
+<para>Usually program messages and documentation are written in
+English. Using a framework made of a set of tools and libraries, it
+is possible to have your favorite applications speak your native
+non-English language. This process of adapting an application to a
+specific language is known as localization. The localization process
+includes translating the program's interfaces and documentation to the
+various languages users need and, in some countries or regions, making
+the inputs and outputs conform to particular conventions. &kbabel; is
+a tool which will assist you in the localization process to
+make an application's interface speak many languages.</para>
+
+<para> Every internationalization-aware program makes available for
+translation one or more message-catalog files. The extension of these
+files is <literal role="extension">.pot</literal>.
+<acronym>POT</acronym> is an acronym for <quote>Portable Object
+Template</quote>.</para>
+
+<para>
+Each translator takes a copy of one of these <acronym>POT</acronym> templates and
+begins to fill in the blanks: each message is translated into the
+language desired. The file containing the translated text is referred
+to as a <acronym>PO</acronym> (Portable Object) file.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+Once all the messages have been translated, the
+<acronym>PO</acronym> file is compiled into a machine-readable binary
+format, known as a <acronym>MO</acronym> (Machine Object) file. These
+files, which will be stored with a <literal
+role="extension">.mo</literal> extension
+(or a <literal role="extension">.gmo</literal> extension to show
+that they were processed by &GNU; gettext), act as a database to
+minimize the time taken by the applications to look up each translated
+message.
+</para>
+
+<para> This suggests a question: do I need to know what is
+inside a <acronym>PO</acronym> file even though I have &kbabel;? The
+answer is, undoubtedly, yes. There are situations when a message
+catalog can become corrupted and needs to be manually fixed. Most of
+these problems are the so-hated <acronym>CVS</acronym> or <acronym>SVN</acronym> conflicts which
+occur when a translating process is coordinated by a version management
+system, like <acronym>CVS</acronym> or Subversion (<acronym>SVN</acronym>).
+&kbabel; cannot help you much if a problem like this arises so a
+text editor and some knowledge of <acronym>PO</acronym>-files are
+needed. Let's see how a <acronym>PO</acronym> file is made.</para>
+
+<para><acronym>PO</acronym> files consist of pairs of messages&mdash;a
+<emphasis>msgid</emphasis> and a <emphasis>msgstr</emphasis>. The
+msgid is the text in English and the msgstr is the text translated
+into the appropriate language. The text that accompanies each msgid
+and msgstr is enclosed within C-like double quotes. An example, taken
+from a <acronym>PO</acronym> file for &noatun;, is <literal>msgid
+&quot;Open a Playlist&quot;</literal> </para>
+
+<!-- ### TODO: we would need an example of an entry -->
+
+<para>Empty lines and those starting with <literal>#</literal> are
+ignored. Lines starting with a # represent comments and are a useful
+way of providing a note detailing which file this message is going
+to be used in and, in the case of the application writers, to provide
+additional comments to help translation. &kbabel; displays these
+comment lines for every message.</para>
+
+<para>In many cases the first msgid-msgstr pair in
+<acronym>PO</acronym> file is a fake entry (acting as
+<acronym>PO</acronym> file header) that contains various information
+about the translated <acronym>PO</acronym> file, such as the
+application name, translating date, translator name and so on.</para>
+
+<para>
+An useful feature is called <emphasis>plural forms</emphasis>.
+English uses only singular and one plural form of nouns, &eg; <quote>1 file
+</quote> and <quote>10 files</quote>. This leads many developers
+to an idea that the world is that simple and they can use messages like
+<quote>Do you want to delete %1 file(s)?</quote>, where
+<literal>%1</literal> denotes a number of files to be deleted.
+But this is fundamentally wrong and for many languages such a kind of translation
+will not work. For Slovak translation you need 3 different
+forms of the message. This number is different for different languages
+and even when it is the same, &eg; Czech uses 3 forms as well, the rule to decide which
+form to use can be very different. Plural forms in <acronym>PO</acronym> files are here to help.
+</para>
+
+<note><para>
+&kde; developers have chosen a different implementation for the plural forms than
+<application>&GNU; gettext</application> and they have introduced their own
+format and handling for them.
+It is planned to use &GNU; gettext's plural forms in &kde; version 4.

+<para>
+For convenience &kbabel; has
+toolbars to speed up many operations and, for busy users, there are
+many keyboard shortcuts. The main window is divided into four
+parts.
+</para>
+
+<para>The <emphasis>upper-left</emphasis> edit box is read-only and
+contains the current msgid field from the opened PO-file and its
+English text.</para>
+
+<para>The <emphasis>bottom-left</emphasis> edit box contains the
+msgstr field related to the msgid shown and here you can edit the
+translated text.</para>
+
+<para>The <emphasis>top-right</emphasis> part of the window is a comments
+panel where you can view the comments added for entry currently being
+edited.</para>
+
+<para>It can be used:</para>
+
+<itemizedlist>
+<listitem><para>
+to find out how the current message is treated by the
+application (c-formatted or simple)
+</para></listitem>
+<listitem><para>
+in some cases, to read helpful comments added by the application's
+developer to assist the translators in their work&mdash;for example,
+there may be technical hints (used to great effect in the
+<application>LyX</application> project)
+</para></listitem>
+<listitem><para>
+when you need to know which file a message is from because you
+want to report a spelling mistake in the original English string.
+</para></listitem>
+</itemizedlist>
+
+<para>
+The editor window (in the bottom right) is the most sophisticated part
+of &kbabel;'s main window. Its size can be
+adjusted using the splitter line between it and the comment panel
+(the panel in the top right).
+The editor window has two tabbed panels&mdash;one storing search
+information, the other context information. The context information
+tab contain a scrolled view which shows the previous and next 4 entries
+associated with the current entry&mdash;essentially it's a small
+'snapshot' of the PO file. While translating, it is very common for
+message strings to be related to subsequent and previous messages,
+so the context panel is useful for looking at the nearby messages to
+get a hint as to how the current message can best be
+translated. Dialog interface translation is a good example, or widgets
+with their associated text and "what's this" message.

+It also supports more than

+</menuchoice>
+and &kbabel; will present the following dialog:

+<para>
+In the dialog, you should specify what to translate and choose the sources for
+the old translations.
+</para>
+<para>
+At the top of the <guilabel>What to translate</guilabel> frame are three
+checkboxes (<guilabel>Untranslated entries</guilabel>, <guilabel>Fuzzy entries
+</guilabel>, <guilabel>Translated entries</guilabel>) for specifying the kind of
+messages you want to translate. Untranslated and fuzzy entries are natural
+choices for automatic translation, but you can change already translated
+messages as well.
+</para>
+<para>
+The exact matching for <acronym>msgid</acronym>s will always be used for
+rough translation. However, you can add more strategies, &ie;
+<guilabel>Allow fuzzy translation (slow)</guilabel> and
+<guilabel>Allow single word translation</guilabel>. Both of these
+additional strategies must be supported by the sources used (see below).
+There is no specification, what does <quote>fuzzy translation</quote> mean,
+but the purpose is quite obvious. <quote>Single word translation</quote>
+is suitable for only some of the languages. &kbabel; will try to translate
+each word in <acronym>msgid</acronym> separately and then
+put the translated words (or phrases) in the same order in <acronym>msgstr
+</acronym>.
+</para>
+<para>
+As a source for rough translation, any dictionary module available can be
+used. There is a list of <guilabel>Don't use</guilabel> modules and
+<guilabel>Use</guilabel> modules. Modules are used in the order
+in the <guilabel>Use</guilabel> list. First module is asked for
+translation. If it is not found, next module in the list is asked and so on.
+You can use the buttons with arrows for moving modules between the
+lists. Don't forget to change the order to suit your needs by <guibutton>Move Up
+</guibutton> and <guibutton>Move Down</guibutton> buttons.
+</para>
+<para>
+Normally &kbabel; will mark every roughly translated message as
+fuzzy, because it assumes that any automatic translation needs to
+be reviewed by a translator. If you are 100% sure that the automatic
+translation will be correct, or you will review all the translation anyway.
+<guilabel>Mark changed entries as fuzzy</guilabel> allows you to
+turn off this automatic fuzzy marking, but you will need to confirm this.
+</para>
+<para>
+If you have set all the options to suit your needs, push <guibutton>Start
+</guibutton> to automatically translate messages. You can follow the
+progress bar and in case, there is always the <guibutton>Stop</guibutton>
+button.

+<para>
+&kde; plural forms are denoted by comment <userinput>_n:</userinput> (including a trailing space) containing
