* Not only the meta information of a plugin shall be translateable,
* but also the text like menu entries, information boxes or strings
* inside configuration dialog should be translateable too. Geany is
* offering a way to enable this from code point of view by using a
* function provided by the Geany API -- main_locale_init().
* The function is taking over two parameters LOCALEDIR and
* GETTEXT_PACKAGE which we already know from previous sesction.
* As the function is called best on plugin initialization, it should be
* placed into plugin_init() so the hello world example could look like:
* @code
void plugin_init(GeanyData *data)
{
main_locale_init(LOCALEDIR, GETTEXT_PACKAGE);
main_menu_item = gtk_menu_item_new_with_mnemonic("Hello World");
gtk_widget_show(main_menu_item);
gtk_container_add(GTK_CONTAINER(geany->main_widgets->tools_menu),
main_menu_item);
g_signal_connect(main_menu_item, "activate",
G_CALLBACK(item_activate_cb), NULL);
}
