Hi Paul,

You have to add the file to the I18n load path. If you have a Railtie
file, that would be the place to add it. By heart, it should be
something like:

class Railtie < ::Rails::Railtie
  ActiveSupport.before_configuration do |config|
    config.i18n.load_path += "your file"
  end
end

For Rails 2, I don't know. Probably just call I18n somewhere. As an
example: devise has a generator that copies a locale file to the
config/locale directory of the app.

Hope this helps,
iain
