 Q. Why the message when I enter '9' is not translated?
 A. This is on purpose: the corresponding string wasn't enclosed in _() macro and
    so didn't get into the message catalog when it was created using xgettext.

 Q. How to get the gettext tools?
 A. For Unix, you should be able to get the source distribution of any GNU mirror
    (see www.gnu.org for a start). gettext() version 0.10 is buggy, try to get at
    least version strictly greater than 0.10. gettext RPMs can be downloaded from
    the standard locations for Linux. For Windows, you can get the precompiled
