Sorry, but poEdit seems a crap - its impossible to see strings in logical order, which makes it unsusable translating helpcontent2 (it shows strings in order untranslated-fuzzy-translated). Also gtranslator should be avoided as it breaks oo.o helpcontent tags containing quote marks "" (messing these up with gettext string linebreaks). KBabel is almost unmaintained for a quite long time, but is still usable with its catalogmanager (supporting both svn and cvs repositories, support for svn 1.4 is already committed and will appear soon) and its own TM. And of course various text redactors with syntax highlighting are good too, when used together with gettext installation. ain --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
