 """
 This module provides i18n support for Konversation scripts written in Python,
 via gettext.
 
 Call the init() function to install the various functions that may be used to
 mark up translatable strings in the builtins namespace, and optionally specify
 a gettext .mo filename to use. See the function's documentation for more
 details.
 
 This module is considered EXPERIMENTAL at this time and not part of the public,
 stable scripting interface.
