I think trackinfo by default is a good idea. I have no problems with it.

Hi Sigmund,
subject; french locale for pMusic-3.0.0
have already a lot - ca.70% translated - on 2.9.18 version;
now i noticed v.3.0.0 has extra msgid versus 2.9.18.

Wether i spent [aaargh!*@#=censured ]!! time to manualy copy/paste strings from pmusic-2.9.18.po to pmusic-3.0.0.po;
whether i ask for a (nice to have ) script to copy/paste the existing v2.9.18 msgstr to the relevant 3.0.0 msgid ...
(i did not already have found such a script in the forum ..).

Would - you - or somebody else - mind writing such a script?
(i can't figure out how much time it needs writing such a script)

thanks in advance for any comment or advice !
Charlie

Gettext problem is back. Comments in line 104 of func_progressbar still has to be deleted.
charlie6, you don't need to do anything manually. poedit and Momanager could do it automatically. Place pmusc.mo for 2.9.18 in /usr/share/locale... where it should be and run MoManager. Generated new po-file will have all needed lines old and new.

[charlie6]

Hi rodin.s,
many thanks ... your tip still comes in time !
BTW, you'r right: i (again ) also had to uncomment line 104 to get MoManager doing its job.
Cheer, Charlie

[zigbert]

Hello guys
Yes, I see I forgot the move the lines we talked about. Sorry for that. Now I am a bit confused, because my line 104 has no comments ???

Can you show me the code (ie. line 100-110) that works for you.


Thank you
Sigmund
