But groff is smart enough to deal with that (since it's in a TP argument, the stack gets emptied afterward), so po4a should do the same. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Martin Quinson (mquinson) Date: 17/08/2004 18:52 Message: connecté user_id=10600 Actually, not allowing such constructs helps debuging pages (since, often, authors mess with those constructs). So, I'm not sure it's worth going through the pain of implementing a stack mecanism. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: http://alioth.debian.org/tracker/?func=detail&atid=410622&aid=300883&grou...

[ po4a-Bugs-300958 ] Adding PO file headers to translated documents

by noreply＠alioth.debian.org

Bugs item #300958, was opened at 27/09/2004 02:18 You can respond by visiting: http://alioth.debian.org/tracker/?func=detail&atid=410622&aid=300958&grou... Category: None Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Martin Quinson (mquinson) Assigned to: Nobody (None) Summary: Adding PO file headers to translated documents Initial Comment: the po-debiandoc tool writes the PO-file header in the generated SGML file (enclosed in , of course), so that these useful informations are contained in this file. It would be really nice if po4a-translate did something similar.

[ po4a-Bugs-301026 ] po4a-update eats characters not in charset without asking

by noreply＠alioth.debian.org

Bugs item #301026, was opened at 2004-11-06 20:05 You can respond by visiting: http://alioth.debian.org/tracker/?func=detail&atid=410622&aid=301026&grou... Category: None Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Yves Rütschlé (yves-guest) Assigned to: Nobody (None) Summary: po4a-update eats characters not in charset without asking Initial Comment: If you translate a PO file into some language using iso8859-1, but forget to precise the charset in the header of the PO file, and don't give the charset to po4a-update either, then po4a-update proceeds to remove all accentuated characters from the file. I am not sure what the best way to handle this would be; presumably, one could do some heuristic ("there are many strange characters in there, probably this isn't ascii") and ask for confirmation that you do actually want to filter out strange characters. Fact is, most of the time you won't want to. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: http://alioth.debian.org/tracker/?func=detail&atid=410622&aid=301026&grou...

[ po4a-Bugs-301133 ] Adding templates to po4a config files

by noreply＠alioth.debian.org

Bugs item #301133, was opened at 2005-01-23 12:39 You can respond by visiting: http://alioth.debian.org/tracker/?func=detail&atid=410622&aid=301133&grou... Category: None Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Jordi Vilalta (jvprat-guest) Assigned to: Nobody (None) Summary: Adding templates to po4a config files Initial Comment: This is a request for enhancement. One of the shortcommings (in my opinion) of the po4a script is the strictness of the config files. When you want to add a new language you have to touch several places of the file. Since the paths are usually similar, this could be enhanced by using some kind of templates. My proposal is to add a new command [po4a_langs] and some kind of identificator (like $lang), so that an actual typical config file like this: [po4a_paths] po/debian.pot fr:po/fr.po de:po/de.po es:po/es.po [type: pod] example.pod fr:out/example_fr.pod add_fr:po/add.fr de:out/example_de.pod add_de:po/add.de es:out/example_es.pod add_es:po/add.es could be rewritten to something like: [po4a_langs] fr de es [po4a_paths] po/debian.pot $lang:po/$lang.po [type: pod] example.pod $lang:out/example_$lang.pod add_$lang:po/add.$lang This way, it's so easy to add a new translation, and I think that the file's structure gets clearer. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: http://alioth.debian.org/tracker/?func=detail&atid=410622&aid=301133&grou...

In other words, po4a-update silently: - changes the charset I have specified in the PO - changes all the non-ascii characters in some way ("in some way", because I don't think it ended up in UTF-8 either). I'm so in love with French accents right now. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: http://alioth.debian.org/tracker/?func=detail&atid=410622&aid=301026&grou...

Not speaking that he knows which module it is, most of the time, since he provided the -f flag... Another good point about that is that emacs undertand this notation and jump to the error point. I'm often pissed of by perl, which hides the error point right in the middle of the phrase, and I know realize I did the same for po4a :-/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: http://alioth.debian.org/tracker/?func=detail&atid=410622&aid=300889&grou...
