[po4a] Error with Text: \n symbol missing
by Omar Campagne
Hello:
I am part of the l10n project for vim at assembla (vim-doc-es).
It has been very helpful to us, as we used it to gettextize previously
done translations that were edited in normal text files. However, I
encountered some issues I had to solve with po2txt/txt2po
This is a representation of the issue.
Original usr_01.txt in Vim:

It is curious that po4a respects the '\n's throughout the document in
every file, but for this bit. After gettextization I had to msgmerge -U
with the POT file generated by txt2po due to this and another issue.
Samething if I tried to update all in one shot (plus the fuzzy strings
added).
I really like the po4a.cfg element, as it proved very useful (and fun :)
to me tweaking it when I translated aptitude-doc-es for upcoming
aptitude 0.6, and I would like our project to benefit from po4a's
automatizations, as well as to propose it other vim localizations
projects (in case they don't use it yet).
Is there any way to solve this issue? I haven't seen much in the modules
manpages.
Please, CC me as I am not suscribed to this list.
Thanks and cheers for the good work!
