I would have thought evolution, with such a large compendium of messages, would have contained a message like that, and I found: #: ../mail/em-account-editor.c:2245 ../mail/em-account-editor.c:2319 msgid "Checking for New Mail" The only difference is in the capitals. Now I wonder. Is there a reason to keep the capitals in this message? It seems to be just a message to the user. On a side note: When developers add a new message, is there a way for them to easily check whether there is already a similar message present?

Language switcher applet
I now use GNOME from day-to-day in my secondary language (Thai). I've found it has helped me practice reading/typing Thaiscript (a non-Roman alphabet) and is improving my Thai vocabulary. However, from time-to-time I come across a translated error message (in Thai) that I don't understand (yet!). Wouldn't it be great if I could switch the displayed language of all the GNOME applications on the screen with a language switcher applet, as easily as you can switch the keyboard layout between US and Thai (and British when I need a pound sign!). Not only would it let me get on quicker, but it would also help me improve my language skills, as I could spend a moment each time I get stuck flicking between the two languages and learn the words and the meaning of the phrases without having to resort to the dictionary :) I can think of tons of cases where this feature would be useful and it would be yet another cool feature that all the other desktops don't have (yet, afaik). So, I'm just wondering if it can be done and what would be involved. Has this kind of thing been discussed before somewhere/sometime? If so, where? How feasible is it? What mechanisms would need to be put in place for it to work? Can a program be made to change its LANG, regather it's translations and relabel all it's widgets on the fly easily enough? Could it work in a similar way to how changing the GTK+ theme notifies all the running GNOME apps? Answers, dammit! :) -- Ross ___ gnome-i18n mailing list gnome-i18n@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-i18n

In previous versions of GNOME it was possible to run a application (o create a launcher) as "LANG=es_US fo". However it was disabled around 2.2 o 2.0 (I guess to avoid any security issue as LD_PRELOAD or so). -- Germán Poó Caamaño http://www.ubiobio.cl/~gpoo/ ___ gnome-i18n mailing list gnome-i18n@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-i18n
Upper case messages -how to handle them?
how translators can handle this type of messages. There is no comment from devs ... these examples are from gnome-terminal #: ../src/terminal.c:217 ../src/terminal.c:235 msgid "PROFILENAME" #: ../src/terminal.c:244 ../src/terminal.c:253 msgid "PROFILEID" #: ../src/terminal.c:262 msgid "ROLE" #: ../src/terminal.c:298 msgid "GEOMETRY" ___ gnome-i18n mailing list gnome-i18n@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-i18n

This change from LANG to LANGUAGE (actually LANGUAGE takes precedence over LANG) cost me some evenings trying to figure out what's going on. Is this a GNOME feature or a distro issue?
