No; the gettext() stuff doesn't work with multiple unnamed
substitutions per string. When I run the localization string extraction code, I
get a ton of lines like:
/Users/ed/projects/demo/samples/dButton.py:32: warning: 'msgid' format string
with unnamed arguments cannot be properly localized:
The translator cannot reorder the arguments.
Please consider using a format string with named arguments,
and a mapping instead of a tuple for the arguments.
I don't completely understand why it can't handle such strings, but it
can't, and those strings will not be localized. So I'm converting all such
string substitution to named arguments.
