+@deftypefn {Built-in Function} string bindtextdomain (string @var{domain}, @
+  string @var{dirname})
+This function sets the base directory of the hierarchy containing
+message catalogs for a given message domain.
+
+@var{domain} is a string identifying the textual domain.  If
+it is not empty, the base directory for message catalogs belonging to
+domain @var{domain} is set to @var{dirname}.  It is important that
+@var{dirname} be an absolute pathname; otherwise it cannot be
+guaranteed that the message catalogs will be found.
+
+If @var{domain} is @samp{""}, @code{bindtextdomain} returns the
+previously set base directory for domain @var{domain}.
+@end deftypefn
+
+@deftypefn {Built-in Function} string dgettext (string @var{domain}, @
+  string @var{msgid})  
+@code{dgettext} attempts to translate the string @var{msgid} into the
+currently active locale, according to the settings of the textual
+domain @var{domain}.  If there is no translation available,
+@code{dgettext} returns @var{msgid} unchanged.
+@end deftypefn
+
+@deftypefn {Built-in Function} string dngettext @
+ (string @var{domain}, string @var{msgid}, string @var{msgid_plural}, @
+  number @var{n})
+The @code{dngettext} functions attempts to translate a text string
+into the language specified by the current locale, by looking up the
+appropriate singular or plural form of the translation in a message
+catalog, set for the textual domain @var{domain}.

+Additional functions for plural forms, gettext, GNU gettext

+@end deftypefn
+
+@deftypefn {Library Function} string textdomain (string @var{domain})
+The @code{textdomain} function sets the current message domain to
+@var{domain}, if it is not empty.  In any case the function returns
+the current message domain.  The current domain is @samp{mailfromd}
+initially.  For example, the following sequence of @code{textdomain}
+invocations will yield:
+
+@smallexample
+textdomain("") @result{} "mailfromd"
+textdomain("myfilter") @result{} "myfilter"
+textdomain("") @result{} "myfilter"
+@end smallexample
+              
+@end deftypefn
+
+@deftypefn {Library Function} string gettext (string @var{msgid})  
+@code{gettext} attempts to translate the string @var{msgid} into the
+currently active locale, according to the settings of the current textual
+domain (set using @code{textdomain} function).  If there is no
+translation available, @code{gettext} returns @var{msgid} unchanged.
+@end deftypefn
+
+@deftypefn {Library Function} string ngettext @
+ (string @var{msgid}, string @var{msgid_plural}, number @var{n})  
+The @code{ngettext} functions attempts to translate a text string
+into the language specified by the current locale, by looking up the
+appropriate singular or plural form of the translation in a message
+catalog, set for the current textual domain.
