It sounds like you've managed to do the merge? The statistics you posted sound plausible. > Not that I'm a technophobe or anything but I must say the way > OpenOffice/LibreOffice handle things via pootle is a lot more user > friendly. I've occasionally wondered if we could give translators the option of using web front-end like Pootle. Unfortunately, it seems that no-one runs a "public" Pootle server that will host stuff for any project that approaches it; neither Sourceforge nor Gna (which we use for project hosting) appear to offer anything of the kind. So someone associated with Freeciv would have to set it up on a personal server. >> gd.po:6: invalid plural expression > I can't find that. Is that in the settings? This error is from the gd.po currently in svn. It looks like that has invalid plural specifier syntax, which is presumably something to do with your Virtaal woes. Your "newgd.po" from the rar file you linked to recently doesn't give this error, so I guess you can ignore this one. Hubert's explained the other errors (which I do still get with your newgd.po), and I don't think can add anything there. However, there's another minor issue that msgmerge spotted with your newgd.po: | newgd.po:6965: internationalised messages should not contain the `\v' | escape sequence | newgd.po:6965: internationalised messages should not contain the `\v' | escape sequence I don't know how the '\v's (which usually means "vertical tab", an obscure ASCII control code) got into the translation, but they probably shouldn't be there. (In case you have trouble with line numbers, this is in the string starting "This should be a string of characters, each of which specifies the inclusion of a line of information in the Demographics report.\n") _______________________________________________ Freeciv-i18n mailing list [email protected] https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/freeciv-i18n
