     An extra note to those of you who can do translations:  The "langcomp"
program (in the lang/ directory) has a command-line option "-w" which will
list all messages not found in the message file.  So, for example, doing:

	cd lang
	make langcomp
	./langcomp -w tr.l

(where "tr.l" is the name of the language file, in this case Turkish) will
print out lines like:

	tr.l: String `BAD_EXPIRY_TIME' missing
	tr.l: String `NICK_X_SUSPENDED_MEMOS' missing
	tr.l: String `NICK_X_NOT_ON_CHAN_X' missing
	tr.l: String `CHAN_X_SUSPENDED_MEMOS' missing
	tr.l: String `SERV_X_NOT_FOUND' missing
	tr.l: String `NICK_REGISTER_SYNTAX' missing
	tr.l: String `NICK_REGISTER_REQ_EMAIL_SYNTAX' missing
	tr.l: String `NICK_IDENTIFY_SYNTAX' missing
	tr.l: String `NICK_DROP_SYNTAX' missing
	tr.l: String `NICK_SET_SYNTAX' missing

for each message not found in the file.  You can use this to find which
messages need to be translated/updated.
