+Dummy Qt Translation File
+=========================
+
+This file causes Qt Linguist to generate translation entries for the Qt
+elements that need translation in novelWriter for those languages who do
+not yet have a qtbase_xx.qm file shipped with Qt.
+
+If a qtbase_xx.qm file already exists, do not add a translation for the
+entries generated from this file.
