This function returns the translation of string {\it str} in the current

message catalogs (see \helpref{internationalization overview}{internationalization}), the
original string is returned. In debug build, an error message is logged -- this
-should help to find the strings which were not yet translated. As this function
+should help to find the strings which were not yet translated. If
+{\it domain} is specified then only that domain/catalog is searched

is used very often, an alternative (and also common in Unix world) syntax is
provided: the \helpref{\_()}{underscore} macro is defined to do the same thing
as wxGetTranslation.
