Hi, There is a command to check which texts are not translated. If my code is under directory speedy, I can run this command to see all the texts which are not translated, not including English (because English can use the default):
for k in speedy/*/locale/*/LC_MESSAGES/django.po; do echo $(msgattrib --untranslated $k | fgrep msgstr | wc -l) $k; done | grep -v '^0 ' | fgrep -v "/locale/en/LC_MESSAGES/django.po" | sort -nr And this is with English included: for k in speedy/*/locale/*/LC_MESSAGES/django.po; do echo $(msgattrib --untranslated $k | fgrep msgstr | wc -l) $k; done | grep -v '^0 ' | sort -nr Thanks, Uri. אורי u...@speedy.net On Fri, Jun 16, 2023 at 3:55 PM Matthew Pava <matthew.p...@iss.com> wrote: > I personally like the current behavior.
