hi,
in python to mark strings for translation one does this:

can anyone suggest a very quick and easy way of doing this?
Add the following code (simple and not so accurate code) to your ~/.emacs file,
and restart emacs. Open up a Python module, move the cursor to a string and
press C-c t.

(defun py-mark-trans ()

(insert

(define-key python-mode-map [?\C-c?t] 'py-mark-trans))
(add-hook 'python-mode-hook 'my-python-hook)

The macro recommended is good; another method would be to simply use a
careful keyboard macro.
For instance, go to the top of the buffer, then:
C-x ( (start recording)
C-s (search for \)
C-b ( (prepend the parenthesis)
C-s C-s (search for the closing paren)
C-f ) (closing paren)
C-x )
Then you can basically just keep doing C-x e, or do
C-u 100 C-x e to run the macro, say 100 times.
The advantage of this method is that you don't need to write Emacs
Lisp. The disadvantage is that it is prone to errors and not flexible.
See http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/KeyboardMacros for details.

I haven't worked much on translation as such. But if you choose
type it as somestring and then use substitute option for
substituting somestring with {% trans somestring %}, then you can
do either
1) M-x replace-string
Give the string you want to replace, sometring in this case
and then the string to replace it with, {% trans somestring %} in
this case. This would replace All occurrences of somestring with {%
trans somestring %}.
2) M-x query-replace
Same as above, except that it highlights each occurrence one
by one and asks if you need to replace. You can press 'y' or 'n' and
keep going.
Sorry if you meant something else and the reply is not relevant. Thanks

I meant something else. Marking strings for translation means each
string is different. At present what I do is:
1. mark the string
2. C-W
3. type _( this will autocomplete to _() with the cursor between the
quotes
4. C-y
