You can't see it in the animations, but numbers are also internationalized in the \"refreshing `n` feeds\" status text.\n\n# Getting Started\n\n## Docker\n\n1. [Install Docker](https://docs.docker.com/v17.12/install/)\n2. Set your current working directory to the root of this git repository: `cd /path/to/local-news`\n2. Build the docker image: `docker build . -t localnews`\n3. Run the program in Docker: `docker run -it localnews`\n4. Run the program using a pseudo-locale: `docker run -it -e LANG=eo localnews`\n\nNOTES:\n* Copy-and-paste won't work when using Docker because the container won't have access to the host system's clipboard.\n* Opening a feed item in a browser also won't work in Docker, because no browser is installed in the image.\n* The Docker image includes locales for `de_DE.UTF-8`, `es_ES.UTF-8`, and `fr_FR.UTF-8` as well.  Choosing these locales will affect datetime formatting, number formatting, and collation (sort) order.  However, the UI strings have not (yet) been translated for these locales, so the text will appear in English.\n\n## Linux\n\nIf you are on Linux, you will need to install:\n\n* [GNU gettext](https://www.gnu.org/software/gettext)\n* [Go](http://golang.org/)\n* [xdg-utils](https://freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/xdg-utils/)\n\nTo build the program: `make`\n\nTo run the program after it's built: `./bin/localnews`\n\nTo run tests: `make tests`\n\n# Localization\n\n* Translation files are in `configs/locale/{locale}/LC_MESSAGES`\n* `make` will automatically update the \".po\" and \".mo\" files\n* Locale-specific config (color schemes) is in `configs/etc/{locale}/config.xml`\n* We're using Esperanto (`eo`) as a pseudo-language to test internationalization.  Set the environment variable `LANG=eo` to see the UI text and colors change.\n\n# Known Issues\n\nPasting directly to the terminal (e.g. middle-click in X-Windows) will sometimes truncate the pasted text.  This is due to a [bug in the underlying TUI library](https://github.com/gdamore/tcell/issues/200).  As a workaround, you can use \"Ctrl-v\" to paste directly.  Note that this requires the terminal to send the ctrl-v command to the application, which some terminals don't support.\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fwedaly%2Flocal-news","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fwedaly%2Flocal-news","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fwedaly%2Flocal-news/lists"}
