I attach a patch to src/po/check.vim that checks
consistency between error codes in msgid and msgstr
in po files. I don't often write vim scripts, so perhaps
there is a more elegant way of checking this.
I will report the errors it finds to each po file maintainer
this coming weekend.
po files are in CVS but there are no patches for them as
far as I know. So CVS does not contain the latest po files.
Is there a place where one can download all the latest po
files submitted by po file maintainers? I'd like to run the
checks on the latest po files, since some of them (it.po for
example) have already fixed that kind of issues.
