Could the attached diff be a viable starting point for document
language based translations?
I'm somewhat worried about this approach because it apparently
duplicates gettext's job? I don't think many translators could
participate unless the strings are done in the standard way, so they can
use the standard gettext tools.
My thought was to translate the per-documentlanguage strings with a
different function, say
doclang_("See")
And the doclang_ function would temporarily change the language to
whatever was given in @documentlanguage, look up the string using the
standard gettext functions, and change it back.
I discussed this briefly with Bruno (the gettext maintainer) some time
ago. My recollection is that he said he wouldn't be especially easy,
but I don't see any viable alternative. I can dig up his mail if you
want to pursue this (also, it should be in the bug-texinfo or
texinfo-pretest archives).
Wdyt?
Thanks,
karl
BTW, we should probably discuss this on [EMAIL PROTECTED]
rather than help-texinfo, although many of the same people are on all
the texinfo lists ...
