Hi All, I have a
messages.en.po file, extracted from various sources. We have translators who translated them into several languages. We are using standard gettext command line utils for extracting, merging and compiling message catalogs, for example: shopzeus.pl.po - contains polish translations for the original english msgids shopzeus.sk.po - contains slovakian translations for the original english msgids shopzeus.hu.po - contains hungarian translations for the original english msgids Now we got a translator for another language, but she cannot read/ write in english. Instead of translating A -> C directly, we would like to use A -> B translation, give it to her, then she can do B -> C translation. Finally, we would like to merge these into an A -> C message catalog file. (A-English, B-Hungarian, C-Romanian) I know that this is not the best way to do it - translators should always translate the original text. However, we do not have this option right now, and the "not recommended" way should be possible. But how to do it? I was reading gettext documentation but I could not find out what command line options to use. Formally: Step 1: # Create a file with hungarian msgids. PROG01 shopzeus.hu.po shopzeus.hu_ro.po Step 2: The user processes shopzeus.hu_ro.po, translating hu messages into ro messages. Step 3: # From EN->HU and HU->RO translations, create EN->RO translation. PROG02 shopzeus.hu.po shopzeus.hu_ro.po shopzeus.ro.po Q: what are the names of PROG01 and PROG02 programs and how to use them? Thanks, Laszlo
