Details

Accessor of the translator-credits slot of the gtk-about-dialog class.

The gtk-about-dialog-translator-credits slot access function returns the translator credits string which is displayed in the translators tab of the secondary credits dialog. The (setf gtk-about-dialog-translator-credits) slot access function sets the translator credits.

The intended use for this string is to display the translator of the language which is currently used in the user interface. Using GNU gettext, a simple way to achieve that is to mark the string for translation:
gtk_about_dialog_set_translator_credits (about, _("translator-credits"));  
It is a good idea to use the customary "translator-credits" msgid for this purpose, since translators will already know the purpose of that msgid, and since the gtk-about-dialog widget will detect if the "translator-credits" property is untranslated and hide the tab.
