Note that settrans does almost nothing. It simply writes a STRING to an
INODE. Syntax is "settrans INODE STRING". There are some options that
specify what to do if a translator already exists (passive or active), but
this is "advanced" usage.
For translators in general, see
http://www.debian.org/ports/hurd/hurd-doc-translator
a 12kB piece I wrote on translators.
For individual translators, check their documentation.

So you should be muhc more concerned with the pfinet translator than with
settrans.
