== Creating the interface in Glade
The first step is to create the interface with 'glade-2'. Every time you create
a widget with a text field, the XML generated will have a 'translatable="yes"'
field added to it.

Next you'll want to create the main translation file. To do this, use the following
command:

+foo.glade is genereated by glade-2. myapp.rb and lib/lib.rb are the script files for your application which you created.
