Well you know at the moment, no no, but the feature of labels adjusted by config file is only just available, I'm guessing, but I think that its use will grow over time. Of course I could be wrong, I have been in the past :-) So maybe we could forget it until the demand was there, but with no guarantees of time availability or interest in fixing it at that time. > > I'm still not too happy about this as it adds some overhead for a > rather small effort. > > I think Nick suggested this earlier: > > why don't we simply put the defaul labels somewhere into src/build.c so > that intltool grabs them as usual.

That looks kinda like a maintenance nightmare keeping the strings in the code in line with the labels in config files, please don't go there for your own sakes ;-) Cheers Lex > > Regards, > Enrico > > -- > Get my GPG key from http://www.uvena.de/pub.asc > > _______________________________________________ > Geany-devel mailing list > [email protected] > http://lists.uvena.de/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geany-devel > > _______________________________________________ Geany-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.uvena.de/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geany-devel
