[WG: I18N & L10N] I18N & L10N] First steps with i18n using Benten

[Jean-Francois Leveque]

Hi Shoji, Yuki and Frederic,

I did the TMX generation using Linux.

When does it fail for you on Mac OS X ?

I still don't understand how the TM part of Benten works. I naively 
thought a TMX file could directly be used by Benten.

Frederic and myself need the whole recipe for making new translations 
with help from the old ones.

Cheers,

J-F
