The gettext manual proposes to use sgettext(). You pass a string to it
that has a more explaining prefix. For example sgettext("DOCUMENT|New")
or sgettext("FILE|New") if it does not find a translation for it it will
strip every thing before the last '|', so it returns only "New". Since
the separator character ('|') may not work for everyone and the function
is relative simple, sgettext is not part of the API. In elitaire I use
the following function:
inline char *
sgettext(const char *msgid)
{
char *msgval = gettext(msgid);
if (msgval == msgid)
msgval = strrchr(msgid, '|') + 1;
return msgval;
}
