Using localisation of a Perl package
I have a Perl package, which is widely used and tested, but recently a version in another language was added. The relevant po-files have been reviewed for this and are ready for testing. What are the steps to select the language by the user? From my understanding the language environment variable should be set first:
Code:
LANG=en_US.UTF-8

Then the package should be started.
Will it upon starting automatically select the english version ("en"), by looking at the po file with that extension?

How have you modified your package to handle localized strings? Are you using the Locale::PO module?

Thank you for your response. The strings code has been developed using __x() for the strings, at least from the little I have seen. There are two po-files, one for each language in the locale directory. A Locale module is being used.
