Hi!
I'm using Po4a for maintenance of reST(reStructuredText) formatted
documents.
The format "text" is almost working fine here but has problems with some
of reST's specials.
So I patched Text.pm to get it working, at least for me.
Since I'm new to Po4a (and to this list) and not fluent in Perl
it may not be a perfect solution, but anyway:
Is there any interest in the patch (it's against version 0.42)?
Regards
Christian

Hello,
Sure, please post your patch. It would also be nice to include unit
tests; you can send a minimal reST file containing all the features
you need (with one translation) and I will write the unit tests.
A new release is planned next week, I will have a look at your patch
after that date.

I attached a zip file with the patched Text.pm and some test files.
Hopefully it's o.k. that way (it's my first one).
If you need more or less or different infos please let me know.

Thanks, it looks like your archive contains everything I need; I will
tell you when it is integrated, it should happen around the end of
this month.

Recently I upgraded po4a to 0.44/0.45 and noticed that my patch
wasn't included. Since I need it I patched the new version now.
The diff (against 0.45's Text.pm) is attached.
Perhaps you are still interested in it.

I'm also want to use po4a for handling RST. What about to implement this
patch
(see
http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/po4a-devel/attachments/20131010/...
I haven't tested it, but hopefully it works as I expect.
The dnf tool will become the next generation packaging program in Fedora 22, and
it has some man pages maintained in RST. I tried to use plain text as format
definition (with -m), but this is really unsatisfying: All the formatting
appears in the pot file and will confuse the translators. Even the patch is
incomplete for handling all the peculiarities of RST, it is better than nothing.
In any case, we should always try to translate the lowest-level source file
instead of the resulting one (well, would be possible to work on the man pages
in that case, but not really recommended). Native support for RST would be very
appreciated.
Best Regards,
Mario
