Hi Everybody, Lately, I returned to the 'tag elimination' idea because some of our translators cannot cop up with the tags they see in Virtaal. (We are doing translation offline). And with a little regex from stackoverflow <http://stackoverflow.com/a/8784436/1993440> , i produced a python script below and got 'clean' text. Here is my entire 'process':
1) po2csv -i x.po -o y.csv => Get CSV 2) Open y.csv in LO and Delete columns A and C 3) run clear-tags.py => get y-clean.csv 4) Open y-clean.csv in LO, run =MOD(ROW(L2),2) on separate column, Filter the empty row created by po2csv and delete those. Here<https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B1xCocIHKT5jS3FELXhCdVJ6Mm8/edit> is a sample file i did this way. As you see this is heavy to do for so many po files. But if this is found to be good and correct, I think we can make it into a bigger script that can do this repeatedly for a given directory. "clear-tags.py" import re f = open('y.csv') text = f.read() f.close() clean = re.sub('<[^>]+>', ' ', text) f = open('y-clean.csv', 'w') f.write(clean) f.close() On Mon, Dec 10, 2012 at 12:28 PM, Yaron Shahrabani <sh.ya...@gmail.com>wrote: > I still need some info from the translation maintainers: > What type of tags are there in the translation?
