Top Forums Programming Open Source What is your favorite Linux distro? Post 302144268 by s4g3 on Wednesday 7th of November 2007 03:46:33 AM

Gentoo would be my choice of Linux. My perception is Linux is meant for learning and Redhat to some extent suppresses that. Slackware is good too along with Debian but Gentoo is almost like LFS

Also Gentoo gives me a solid O/s with loads of customization and almost all sorts of tuning parameters which other distros do not allow me to without "re"compilation (or maybe am not aware of it). Redhat is good to start with and due to their paid support its good for production servers too but i believe if someone wants to really learn linux he should try LFS

Locale::Po4a::Guide(3)					User Contributed Perl Documentation				    Locale::Po4a::Guide(3)

NAME
Locale::Po4a::Guide - convert Guide XML documents from/to PO files DESCRIPTION
The po4a (PO for anything) project goal is to ease translations (and more interestingly, the maintenance of translations) using gettext tools on areas where they were not expected like documentation. Locale::Po4a::Guide is a module to help in the translation of the Gentoo Linux documentation in the Guide XML format into other [human] languages. This format is documented here: http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/xml-guide.xml STATUS OF THIS MODULE
This module is fully functional, as it relies in the Locale::Po4a::Xml module. This only defines the translatable tags and attributes. The only known issue is that it doesn't include files with the <include href="..."> tag, but you can translate all those files alone, and it's usually better to have them separated. SEE ALSO
