Importing this module defines a :func:`translate` function that translates
messages of an application. The current implementation does nothing but
defines a minimum API.

Example::

    from soma.translation import translate as _
    try:
        f = open(configurationFileName)
    except OSError:
        raise RuntimeError(_('Cannot open configuration file "%s"')
                          % (configurationFileName, ))
