Remove gettext doc excerpt until the license is sorted out.
The Free Software Foundation has distributed the GNU gettext manual under at least two different licenses (a brief copyleft and GNU FDL), but neither of those seems compatible with the GPLv2 of ELinks.

--------------------

|

First set Plural-Forms: header (msgid "" at top of .po file) to some correct
|
||||
value, depending on language.
|
||||
|
||||
To help you in this, here is an excerpt from GNU gettext documentation:
|
||||
|
||||
Only one form:
|
||||
Some languages only require one single form. There is no distinction
|
||||
between the singular and plural form. An appropriate header entry
|
||||
would look like this:
|
||||
|
||||
Plural-Forms: nplurals=1; plural=0;
|
||||
|
||||
Languages with this property include:
|
||||
|
||||
Finno-Ugric family
|
||||
Hungarian
|
||||
Asian family
|
||||
Japanese, Korean
|
||||
Turkic/Altaic family
|
||||
Turkish
|
||||
|
||||
Two forms, singular used for one only:
|
||||
This is the form used in most existing programs since it is what English
|
||||
is using. A header entry would look like this:
|
||||
|
||||
Plural-Forms: nplurals=2; plural=n != 1;
|
||||
|
||||
(Note: this uses the feature of C expressions that boolean expressions
|
||||
have to value zero or one.)
|
||||
|
||||
Languages with this property include:
|
||||
|
||||
Germanic family
|
||||
