----------------------------------------------------------------------
First off, I'm new to i18n and gettext ... but I think it will serve my
needs. So, imagine this php script:
<?php
echo _( <<< EOF
It's a great day!
EOF
);
?>
When I run "xgettext file.php" on it, I get warnings about "unterminated
character constant" ... which I assume is the single quote in "it's".
Is there a way around this? Or am I hoping for too much trying to use
gettext and here-docs together?
Also, how do I tell xgettext to only look for strings inside _( ... )
blocks? As it is, it will flag things like the SRC attribute in image tags,
HREF in link tags, etc. (anything in quotes, I think).
Thanks in advance!
