Hi,
still about porting plugins form 2.2 to 2.4:

In fact, the call to gimp_domain_register() was already present in the gimp-plugin-template:
gimp_plugin_domain_register (PROCEDURE_NAME, LOCALEDIR);
It returns success, but the menu entry is not translated.
I couldn't find any help from other plugins' sources because they don't register this way.
Another problem I found is that the GIMP helpbrowser doesn't read the help files correctly
(no problem when using firefox, though). The crash occurs in helpbrowser/dialog.c,
inside the function browser_dialog_make_index_foreach(), at this point:
indices = g_strsplit (item->title, ".", -1); /* THIS CALL FAILS */
for (i = 0; i < 5; i++)
{
if (! indices[i]) /* CRASH HERE */
break;
item->index += atoi (indices[i]) << (8 * (5 - i));
}
and that's because item->title is NULL.
Thus, it seems that I need to register a title somehow, but I didn't find any documentation online
about how to prepare an help file. Again, the standard plugins were of no help to me.
Any help/hint/clue/link would be appreciated.

If I manage to get it tworking I would be glad to send you my patches!
