TRANSLATING VIM MESSAGES
-This file explains how to create and maintain po files using
-gnu-gettext.win32, a Windows port of gettext by Franco Bez

+This file explains how to create and maintain po files using a number of
+GnuWin packages. You will need gettext, libiconv and libexpat. As of
+August 2010 the versions known to work are gettext 0.14.4, libiconv 1.9.2-1
+and expat 2.0.1. gettext and libiconv can be found at:
- http://people.freenet.de/franco.bez/gettext/gettext_win32_en.html
+ http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/
+
+expat can be found at:
+
+ http://sourceforge.net/projects/expat/
+
+expat will install into its own directory. You should copy libexpat.dll into
+the bin directory created from the gettext/libiconv packages.
First read the README.txt file in this directory for general remarks on
translating Vim messages.
