1. I skipped Charter 8 Creation of Fonts;
2. You can did a speed read to Character9;
3. I think Charter 10 Gettext: Architectural Overview isimportant. Because many I18N/L10N applications need use those tools andtoolkit.
4. Chapter 12 ~ 17 and the rest of this book aretalking about localisation of various systems and tools, like GNOME, KDE. I chose GNOMEto take a basic understanding.
5. The exmaple in Charpter 10 is very good for demonstrating the usage of gettext functions. You can refer to it in Chinese at: http://brantc.blog.运维网.com/410705/244767.
