Qt Linguist can't show text for code that isn't already programmed. So when doing a translation you need to compile, each time new text was added by the coder. IIRC for Qt Linguist we need to generate some file(s) during compiling, I guess it's not possible to get the file(s) without compiling. I suspect compiling is needed for Qt based software. - Ralf -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
