I think this is a technical challenge; how to add a variable-length list of words to a PO file. For example, for the Greek language there are 24 letters, other alphabets have different sets of letters. A hack to do this? msgid "alphabet" msgstr "ΑΒΓΔΕΖΗΘΙΚΛ......" msgid "MilAlphabet_1" msgid "ΑΛΦΑ" msgid "MilAlphabet_2" msgid "ΒΗΤΑ" msgid "MilAlphabet_3" msgid "ΓΑΜΜΑ" msgid "MilAlphabet_4" msgid "ΔΕΛΤΑ" ..... There will be MilAlphabet_x, x up to around 50, if that captures to biggest alphabet. How is the military alphabet with CJK or Indic scripts; The program would easily associate letters to their representation in the local language.
