Locale::Messages and Irish

ld50 has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

I'm having trouble with getting a language to work with Locale::Message module.

My script works with other languages like nl (dutch) and en (english). I'm trying to get ga (Irish) to work but its not loading. i've aslo tried ga_IE

Here is the code thats giving me the trouble.
These are the modules:

use strict;
use Net::Jabber qw( Client );
use Getopt::Long;
use POSIX;
use Net::Dict;
use Locale::Messages qw (:locale_h :libintl_h);
setlocale (LC_MESSAGES, "ga");
textdomain ('dictbot');
bindtextdomain ('dictbot' => "./locale");
[download]

------ one example of using gettext: ------

    $message = gettext( "commands" ) . ":\n";
[download]

Is there anything obvious that im missing here.

Thanks,

mich

A short code fragment so we can replicate you problem would be in order! Also a copy of any error messages the code produces in your environment. jdtoronto	[reply]
