Hi! I'd like to make code comments in Pippy examples translatable, especially since so many of our deployments have Spanish as a first language. Here's one example of what an on-disk format could look like:
# The next comment is localised. ##en: Pippy example comment ##es: Pippy ejemplo comentario a = 5 In the Pippy view, the user would see either "# Pippy example" or "# Pippy ejemplo comentario" for that line, depending on their locale. That's the kind of workflow I'd like, however it would be nice to tie in to our existing Pootle/gettext infrastructure. Does anyone have an idea for how to do that? Here's one way I can think of: # The next comment is localised. ##cid: example1 and then in Pippy, when reading the Python example from disk, we can look for "##cid:" and print the localised gettext string that matches that ("example1") tag. The disadvantage is that a confusing mapping of comment tags to comment strings has to be maintained -- unless the English string itself becomes the tag? I don't have much intuition about the best way to hook up gettext. Do these sound reasonable? More importantly, with my time spoken for by power manager work lately, would anyone like to help with getting the basic infrastructure up? :) Thanks! - Chris. -- Chris Ball <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ Sugar mailing list Sugar@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/sugar
