[wp-polyglots] Localizing a theme

[iwan]

Hi

I'm trying to use the gettexted default theme, and having similar  
problems.

So am I right in thinking that at the top of each (main) theme file,  
I need:

load_theme_textdomain('theme');

and then each string should call the same domain, e.g.:

__('Author','theme')

If so, then since the gettext theme is *always* going to need these  
modifications, why aren't they there already by default? Or am I  
missing something? ;-)

I'm happy to make all the changes and commit them, if people think  
this is needed.

Thanks
iwan
