And me being not fond of any unnecessary work on anyones shoulders, I want to automate as much as possible of that stuff :-) > this, when it could have been avoided with a simple search and replace by > one person (which doesn't really need to know how to code)? Also, it can But doing such simple search and replace operations tend to be very brittle. Either the one doing it will forget it the next time or mistype something... He would have to be very careful, each time first generating the pot, then pulling the source and compare them... And then, either fix the sources (html, python) or remember to do the manual fixes for the next time again. Lots of manual work which *will* fail at some time, so in the end we gained next to nothing. From my experience with manual build preparation steps, it is better to avoid steps like that and instead make sure that failures happen and get detected as early and as fast as possible.
