What is function _e()? (2 posts)

    Hi, everyone,

    I'm trying to debug some errors I've found in WordPress and have a pretty elementary question: what is the _e() function that is used throughout link-manager.php, and possibly many other files? Where is it defined? Where is it documented?

    Sorry if this is a silly PHP or other documented issue. "_e" is too generic to get any reasonable data back on Google or forum searches.

    Thanks,
    Scott

    _e() and __() are translation functions used in localization.

    In 1.2.x, they're defined in wp-includes/wp-l10n.php (but using wp-includes/gettext.php).
