Hello,
All is in the title...
Is there a command line which allows to get a pot file directly from a 'gettexted' application script?

Thank you for your attention.

Cordialement.

Allô, argolance.

How to get a "pot" file ? Smile
As the above is written, if I was from the RCMP drug squad, I'd put a tail on you! Very Happy What are you talking about? Smile /

Comment obtenir un fichier de "pot" ? Smile
Tel que ton message ci-dessus est écrit, si j'étais de l'escouade des stup. de la GRC, je te prendrais en filature ! Very Happy De quoi tu parles, là ? Smile

Hello musher0,
Thank you for answering.

Laughing Laughing Laughing This really made me burst of laughing... So, it is not a tail, but a spell you put on me!

When a script has to be internationalized with "gettext", it is consequently modified for. Ex: the chain "Do you smoke?" is changed as a gettext variable:
Code:
$(gettext 'Do you smoke')

All the chains (Ex: "Yes I do!" Wink ) of the application are then written in a special file, Ex: my_application.pot from which is built a .po file, specific to a particular language, from which is created a .mo file, usually stored inside /usr/share/locale... This .pot file can be built manually. But it is sometimes long, boring, and especially precarious, because it is easy to make errors, making .mo files not to work properly.
I just would like to know if a command line could create the .pot file automatically directly from tlhe gettexted application script? Or perhaps a special simple application?

Cordialement.

The command is (devx.sfs is needed):
Code:
xgettext -L shell file.sh -o file.pot

or if you want to see it's content in terminal:
Code:
xgettext -L shell file.sh -o -

What if the script isn't gettexted yet? Is there a command to gettext a script?

Let's say I want to gettext the script in this PET. What modifications should I do? Is it the same for all scripts or it depends on the type of script?

Me too. In fact, for apps such as wmswitcher, desksetup, pupshutdown, pmount, jwm config., etc., I've been translating the scripts directly, but this must be done with patience and care to avoid breaking the code, which will cause the app to not work. Also, if you manage to gettext an app you're giving others the chance to translate to their language by just installing it and using momanager. Another advantage is that the new gettexted apps are put into woof, then you just have to put the .mo file in the langpack. Official language packs are not meant to include any executables to ensure compatibility across Puppy versions, so the apps I translate by modifying the scripts have to be offered separately. If there are new versions of those apps, I have to translate the scripts again from scratch, while for gettexted apps you just have to update through momanager.

Hello L18L,
I have translate ver 0.18 Sad


Don't worry, it is the same code. L18L upgraded the script to version 0.19 because it is now gettexted, and also marked in red what has to be done in order to gettext a script. Thanks, L18L. Very Happy
And thanks, rodin.s too, for the gettext commands.
