Would making idiomatic bindings to gettext on Unix platforms qualify for transaltions, or is the core team more interested in cross-platform Rust libraries from the start? Enviado desde mi BlackBerry de Movistar (http://www.movistar.com.ar)

The wiki page is read-only, so I fall back on submitting them on this list. I tried to confine myself to what would be useful to me, in a stdlib. * Internationalization : mechanisms for handling the internationalization of UI texts -> one aspect of i18n is to map a key to a text, based on the current locale (eg Java's [ResourceBundle]) -> another aspect is to format a string based on the current locale (eg Java's [MessageFormat]) * Libicu is already listed on the wiki, but there are no details of what is needed. Here are my suggestions : -> Convertions between text encodings. Ideally, with a customizable way of handling conversion errors. -> Unicode normalization (NFD, NFC, NFKD, NFKC) -> Collator (locale sensitive string comparison), with a configurable degree of strictness * Simple (yet powerful) search on a filesystem (eg Ruby's [glob]) * A simple tokenizer/file parser * Support to read/write zip and tar file formats (not only the gzip algorithm) Olivier Renaud ___ [wanted libraries] https://github.com/mozilla/rust/wiki/Note-wanted-libraries [ResourceBundle] http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/util/ResourceBundle.html [MessageFormat] http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/text/MessageFormat.html [glob] http://ruby-doc.org/core-2.0/Dir.html#method-c-glob _______________________________________________ Rust-dev mailing list [email protected] https://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/rust-dev _______________________________________________ Rust-dev mailing list [email protected] https://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/rust-dev
