| 3 | This module provides internationalization (I18N) and localization (L10N) |
| 4 | support for your Python programs by providing an interface to the GNU gettext |

| 6 | |
| 7 | I18N refers to the operation by which a program is made aware of multiple |
| 8 | languages. L10N refers to the adaptation of your program, once |

| 14 | # suggestions from the following people: |
Barry Warsaw | 95be23d | 2000-08-25 19:13:37 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 15 | # |
| 16 | # Martin von Loewis, who wrote the initial implementation of the underlying |
| 17 | # C-based libintlmodule (later renamed _gettext), along with a skeletal |
| 18 | # gettext.py implementation. |
| 19 | # |
| 20 | # Peter Funk, who wrote fintl.py, a fairly complete wrapper around intlmodule, |
| 21 | # which also included a pure-Python implementation to read .mo files if |
| 22 | # intlmodule wasn't available. |
| 23 | # |
| 24 | # James Henstridge, who also wrote a gettext.py module, which has some |
| 25 | # interesting, but currently unsupported experimental features: the notion of |
| 26 | # a Catalog class and instances, and the ability to add to a catalog file via |
| 27 | # a Python API. |
| 28 | # |
| 29 | # Barry Warsaw integrated these modules, wrote the .install() API and code, |
| 30 | # and conformed all C and Python code to Python's coding standards. |
Barry Warsaw | 33d8d70 | 2000-08-30 03:29:58 +0000 | [diff] [blame] | 31 | # |
| 32 | # Francois Pinard and Marc-Andre Lemburg also contributed valuably to this |
| 33 | # module. |
| 34 | # |
| 35 | # TODO: |
| 36 | # - Lazy loading of .mo files. Currently the entire catalog is loaded into |
| 37 | # memory, but that's probably bad for large translated programs. Instead, |
| 38 | # the lexical sort of original strings in GNU .mo files should be exploited |
| 39 | # to do binary searches and lazy initializations. Or you might want to use |
| 40 | # the undocumented double-hash algorithm for .mo files with hash tables, but |
| 41 | # you'll need to study the GNU gettext code to do this. |
| 42 | # |
| 43 | # - Support Solaris .mo file formats. Unfortunately, we've been unable to |
| 44 | # find this format documented anywhere. |
