Hi all, I am hereby submitting a po_mode for Jed. I hope you will have the time/energy to take a look and test it with the po-file that I have also attached. I have "tampered" with the latter to take into account some changes in the format from a standard gettext generated po-file that could be encountered as there are other ways of generating po-files. It would be great to hear your comments both as to what you think of its general usability/design (mostly modeled after emacs' po-mode as far as I know it) as to details in the coding that, being the novice I am, I'm sure could be done more elegant or robust in several places. If it's not so hopeless that you'll throw up your hands at the mere sight of it ;) and anyone of you might take an interest in this mode then there are a few advanced features that would be nice to have implemented but which are beyond my capabilities: - source code context reference: all entries in gettext generated po-files contain one or more lines of source code reference to the context in which the entries appear. It would be nice if the user could open a window and see the context for the current entry. I just might be able to do that one, but I am not totally sure. - dictionary look-ups: the ability to look up a translation in a user maintained dictionary in some predefined format. This would be especially nice to have. Thanks, Morten -- "Fanaticism consists in redoubling your efforts when you have forgotten your aim." (George Santayana)
