Hi,
I did not saw this patch before, but it seems to solve all the problems and add support for i18n very well. I think that now is just a matter of wait for the patch be officially added and open a call for translators.
Well... there's a couple factors at play here. My working branch at code.neotuli.net has a whole ton of changes in it, and will be getting even more as I clean up the codebase, so any patches aren't going to apply cleanly for very long.
That said, i18n is definitely something we want to add immediately after we finish shuffling code around. Also, I was wondering whether we should use gettext, or whether we should use bash's builtin i18n mechanism (which is poorly documented, but easy to use). Do you know any drawbacks to using it?
bash has a builtin i18n mechanism? Can you elaborate? I've never heard of this
