I don't think enough people know about Tools/i18n/pygettext. It does all the extractions for you, producing a GNU gettext compatible .pot file. You can even teach it to recognize extraction keywords other than the default _(). printf() should be easy to recognize, although we might have to make a slight modification since IIRC, pygettext will only extract strings from keyword functions with exactly one argument. That should be easy to fix. -Barry
