We should preserve one part of Makevars -- we need some special options to xgettext (to tell it that strings passed to P(), etc., are translation candidates). See the giant comment on the XGETTEXT_OPTIONS variable in Makevars for the annoyingness surrounding this. (In particular, the part where we must keep a file named Makevars that contains an XGETTEXT_OPTIONS variable.) -- Nathaniel -- So let us espouse a less contested notion of truth and falsehood, even if it is philosophically debatable (if we listen to philosophers, we must debate everything, and there would be no end to the discussion). -- Serendipities, Umberto Eco _______________________________________________ Monotone-devel mailing list Monotone-devel@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/monotone-devel
