Features:
- Like GCC, it checks that the order and type of the format parameters
match (I don't think it understands "$" though)
- It can do same also for Python keywords (Gramps is PyGtk program)
- It also notices if:
- msgid has unmatched quotes
- translation includes the context part
- there are unescaped XML special characters
(which would mess up e.g. glade files)
- translation includes shortcut key but msgid doesn't
- the last punctuation characters differ
- It counts how many translations are done/fuzzy/missing.
In verbose mode it lists these strings along with the message number
so that you can locate them easier in something like KBabel or
gtranslate.
