1. About libtranslate

	libtranslate is a library for translating text and web pages
	between natural languages. Its modular infrastructure allows
	to implement new translation services separately from the core
	library.

	libtranslate is shipped with a generic module supporting
	web-based translation services such as Babel Fish, Google
	Language Tools and SYSTRAN. Moreover, the generic module
	allows to add new services simply by adding a few lines to a
	XML file (see the services.xml(5) manual page).

	The libtranslate distribution includes a powerful command line
	interface (see the translate(1) manual page).

2. Installation instructions

	See the INSTALL file.
