To be honest I never faced any problem with gettext not because getttext is absolute perfect but because I'm working heavily with Qt so Qt Linguist is my beloved tool but I mentioned gettext just as example because many C++ projects preferred it over any other tool.

Personally I keen to Transcript (http://techbase.kde.org/Localization/Concepts/Transcript) but I wonder does it mature as much as gettext? On other hand what about Wt decision makers do they have the ability to support this feature? AFAIK I'm still a newbie in Wt and I'm barely find the time to use it specially I'm still in migration process from Desktop to Web applications. > > Some more information on the limitations of pure GNU gettext can be > found here: > > http://laxstrom.name/blag/2013/11/20/review-of-gettext-pot-file-format/ > > (please note some of the points that blog post makes do not apply to > Gettext Generalized) BTW, all the above mentioned limitations unavailable in Qt Linguist:-P but no matter these limitations are; gettext is far better from the current translation way in Wt... does it? > > A while ago I flirted with the idea of providing a pure .NET > implementation of Gettext Generalized for a project I was working on. > Maybe I should change plans and do it in C++, with a few of the > enhancements described in the above blogpost... Oops you're .NET fan!!! I left .NET forever since I found Wt :).
