What you do is create a text file ensuring all the strings are
enclosed in double quotes, let's call it options.txt

then run xgettext -a options.txt -o sword.pot

and that will create a file sword.pot that can be translated

[Long list]

Kinda - though I was thinking more of a small commandline program that
uses the library to output the 'Name' and 'Tip' for each of the
optional filters. The names you got  are the c++ class names - we
definitely don't want users to see those ;)

Though, now that Troy is suggesting the built-in localisation method
I'm torn as to whether or not it is worth using gettext for these kind
of strings. otoh tools like poEdit are _much_ nicer for translating
than editing those conf files. *ponder*
