Right. They dont use gettext. And I think the translated files just go
to extension-dir/chrome/locale/LANG [1] and they are automatically
picked up. I meant to ask is there any way I can ask these strings to
be translated too ? I could not find any module that ships a firefox
extension - is there any out there that I can check out ?
