+* String translation
+
+  Pinentry does not not require any translation files because it
+  expects that all strings are provided localized by the caller.  This
+  is due to the design constraint to keep the tool simple and also to
+  make sure that translations match those of GnuPG.
+
+  The available translated strings can be found in GnuPG, file
+  agent/call-pinentry, function start_pinentry.  If a string is not
+  available the Pinentry code uses a default as a fallback.  However,
+  it is highly suggested to provide Pinentry with translated strings.
