Some places mention using _() around strings like _('some string')
.
For instance, in a desktop program with these imports:
const Applet = imports.ui.applet;
const St = imports.gi.St;
const Gdk = imports.gi.Gdk;
const Gtk = imports.gi.Gtk;
const Keymap = Gdk.Keymap.get_default();
const Caribou = imports.gi.Caribou;
const PopupMenu = imports.ui.popupMenu;
const Lang = imports.lang;
const Gio = imports.gi.Gio;
const Main = imports.ui.main;
const MessageTray = imports.ui.messageTray;
What purpose does this function serve?
