Great!

One step would be to translate all the HTML files in the installdir/
directory. In fact, I'd like to get a repository of translations of the
ht://Dig files.

The next step is to migrate error messages to GNU gettext. This will
require a little work (going through all of the code and getting
acquainted with gettext) but would be most appreciated. This would set the
stage for tranlations into any number of languages.

The final step is to add support for indexing Chinese documents (I think
this is what you *really* want to do). First, we'll need to change the
String class in htlib to support double-byte characters. Then we'll need
to change all the code to use double-byte characters by default (since
regular characters will just ignore the second byte).

I think that's about it, but I'm not an expert at supporting
internationalization. ;-)
