Version 0.18.3 - July 2013

* On Mac OS X systems, the setlocale() function now properly
  invalidates loaded message catalogs when a locale has been set.


Version 0.18 - May 2010

* On MacOS X and Windows systems, <libintl.h> now extends setlocale() and
  newlocale() so that their determination of the default locale considers
  the choice the user has made in the system control panels.

* On MacOS X systems, the gettext()/dgettext()/... functions now respect the
  locale of the current thread, if a thread-specific locale has been set.

Version 0.16.1 - November 2006

* Bug fix in the gettext.m4 autoconf macros.

Version 0.16 - October 2006

* Interoperability with automake-1.10.

* Autoconf macros:
  - The gettext autoconf macros now require autoconf 2.52 or newer.
  - A new autoconf macro AM_GNU_GETTEXT_INTL_SUBDIR is added. It allows to
    specify the presence of an intl/ subdirectory outside the AM_GNU_GETTEXT
    invocation.
  - A new autoconf macro AM_GNU_GETTEXT_NEED is added. It allows to specify
    the requirements relating to the GNU gettext implementation outside the
    AM_GNU_GETTEXT invocation.

Version 0.14.4 - April 2005

* The gettext autoconf macros will now work with the forthcoming g++ 4.0.
* Fix improved detection of the locale on MacOS X.

Version 0.14.2 - January 2005

* Improved detection of the locale on MacOS X.
* The gettext autoconf macros now require autoconf 2.50 or newer.

Version 0.14 - January 2004

* New library: GNU.Gettext.dll contains the runtime for using GNU gettext
  message catalogs in C#.

* Special advice for Norwegian users: The language code for Norwegian
  bokmål changed from 'no' to 'nb' recently (in 2003). During the transition
  period, while some message catalogs for this language are installed under
  'nb' and some older ones under 'no', it's recommended for Norwegian users to
  set the LANGUAGE environment variable to 'nb:no' so that both newer and
  older translations are used.

Version 0.13 - November 2003

* On those few platforms (NetBSD and Woe32) for which the native
  printf()/fprintf()/... functions don't support POSIX/XSI format strings
  with positions, replacements are provided through <libintl.h>.

* New function library:
    gettext.sh - shell functions for internationalized shell scripts
* New program:
    envsubst - substitutes environment variables in shell format strings

Version 0.12 - May 2003

* A new C++ class, called gnu::autosprintf, makes it possible to use C format
  strings in C++. This is needed for proper internationalization of C++
  programs.
