In order to enable it for your mod, copy the following code snippet and paste
it at the beginning of your source file(s):
-- Boilerplate to support localized strings if intllib mod is installed.

if intllib then
S = intllib.Getter()
else
S = function(s) return s end

You will also need to optionally depend on intllib, to do so add "intllib?" to
a empty line in your depends.txt. Also note that if intllib is not installed,

Next, for each "translatable" string in your sources, use the S() function
(defined in the snippet) to return the translated string. For example:
minetest.register_node("mymod:mynode", {
description = S("My Fabulous Node"),
<...>
})
minetest.register_node("mymod:mynode", {
description = S("My Fabulous Node"),
<...>
})
Then, you create a `locale' directory inside your mod directory, with files
named after the two-letter ISO Language Code of the languages you want to
support. Here's an example for a Spanish locale file (`es.txt'):
# Lines beginning with a pound sign are comments and are effectively ignored
# by the reader. Note that comments only span until the end of the line;
# there's no support for multiline comments.
Hello, World! = Hola, Mundo!
String with\nnewlines = Cadena con\nsaltos de linea
String with an \= equals sign = Cadena con un signo de \= igualdad
# Lines beginning with a pound sign are comments and are effectively ignored
# by the reader. Note that comments only span until the end of the line;
# there's no support for multiline comments.

Alternatively for all platforms, if you don't want to modify system settings,
you may add the following line to your `minetest.conf' file:

language = <language code>
Also note that there are some problems with using accented, and in general
non-latin characters in strings. Until a fix is found, please limit yourself
