 * Is there any way to provide language folder with po and mo files in future, or
   can I do it by myself? Is there any way to do it enough quick? I know how translation
   works , and how to prepare plugin for translation, but I have no idea is there
   any way to do it automatically (replace text entries with __() or __e() ? I know
   I have to count every line in php file and then in po file add the line like 
   that nameofthefile.php:110 (110 line) And I want to know is there any way to 
   open the php file and let for example po editor to read every line with __() 
   and __e() ?

 * Hi,
 * Localization files go in the `l10n` subdirectory in SLB’s plugin folder.
 * For more information, see [WordPress’ official localization documentation](https://developer.wordpress.org/plugins/internationalization/localization/).
