16.2.3 Desktop Entry files
The programmer produces a desktop entry file template with only the
English strings. These strings get included in the POT file, by way of
xgettext (usually by listing the template in po/POTFILES.in).
The translators produce PO files, one for each language. Finally, an
msgfmt --desktop invocation collects all the translations in the
desktop entry file.
For more information, see the example hello-c-gnome3.
