1.1.1.4 ! root        1: The "langtool" directory contains tools for manipulating language
        !             2: translations for PGP.  The makefile is for Unix; the tools don't
        !             3: build cleanly under MS-DOS, although a little hacking should fix that.
        !             4: 
        !             5: One problem is that the code assumes getopt() is in the standard library,
        !             6: which it usually isn't with MS-DOS compilers, but you can steal getopt.c
        !             7: from the PGP source to fix that one.
        !             8: 
        !             9: In any case, the programs are:
        !            10: 
        !            11: pickpstr - this takes a list of filenames on the command line, searches
        !            12: them for LANG("...") constructs, and emits the "..." strings on
        !            13: standard output.  This is used to extract the strings to be translated
        !            14: from the PGP source.  The strings are found by searching for the
        !            15: 6-character LANG(" sequence.  Any spaces cause the string to be missed.
        !            16: (the name comes from PSTR(), the macro that was replaced by LANG().)
        !            17: 
        !            18: killdups - this copies the outout of pickpstr from stding to stdout,
        !            19: stripping out duplicates.
        !            20: 
        !            21: charconv - this converts between ISO Latin-1 and IBM PC code page 850
        !            22: character sets
        !            23: 
        !            24: langtool - this is the big one, that merges various translation files,
        !            25: reporting which translations are missing, and so on.  It can extract
        !            26: a translation, merge translations, or check translation files for errors.
        !            27: See the "readme" file in the langtool directory for details.
