Hi janl, kid is very usefull, especially for offline translation and moreover with separate build when adding key IDs to the language of translation. We can simply grep for key ID on the .po tree to identify the one msgstr from large set. For ex., in Russian we need to differ verbs with nouns because they has different translations, so verb Print is "Печатать", but the same noun in dialog title is "Печать" and so on. With kid we can find the right target "Print" in list of others.
I thought it was a feature our testers used a lot, so I have prepared genLang with a "kid switch" so it later can be expanded to generate the keys. It's very important to and heavily used by at least Russian team. -- wbr, sb среда, 13 марта 2013 г. пользователь janI писал: > On 13 March 2013 20:34, Ariel Constenla-Haile > <[email protected]<javascript:;>> > wrote: > > > Hi Claudio, > > > > On Wed, Mar 13, 2013 at 10:12:24AM -0300, Claudio Filho wrote: > > > Hi > > > > > > This is a email from "newbies revolutionaries". ;-) > > > > > > I (finally) did a funcional build and did the kid lang pack for my > > > env, but i found a problem: how enable this "language" ?
