| """Internationalization and localization support.
 | |
| 
 | |
| This module provides internationalization (I18N) and localization (L10N)
 | |
| support for your Python programs by providing an interface to the GNU gettext
 | |
| message catalog library.
 | |
| 
 | |
| I18N refers to the operation by which a program is made aware of multiple
 | |
| languages.  L10N refers to the adaptation of your program, once
 | |
| internationalized, to the local language and cultural habits.
 | |
| 
 | |

 | |
| 
 | |
| # This module represents the integration of work, contributions, feedback, and
 | |
| # suggestions from the following people:
 | |
| #
 | |
| # Martin von Loewis, who wrote the initial implementation of the underlying
 | |
| # C-based libintlmodule (later renamed _gettext), along with a skeletal
 | |
| # gettext.py implementation.
 | |
| #
 | |
| # Peter Funk, who wrote fintl.py, a fairly complete wrapper around intlmodule,
 | |
| # which also included a pure-Python implementation to read .mo files if
 | |
| # intlmodule wasn't available.
 | |
| #
 | |
| # James Henstridge, who also wrote a gettext.py module, which has some
 | |
| # interesting, but currently unsupported experimental features: the notion of
 | |
| # a Catalog class and instances, and the ability to add to a catalog file via
 | |
| # a Python API.
 | |
| #
 | |
| # Barry Warsaw integrated these modules, wrote the .install() API and code,
 | |
| # and conformed all C and Python code to Python's coding standards.
 | |
| #
 | |
| # Francois Pinard and Marc-Andre Lemburg also contributed valuably to this
 | |
| # module.
 | |
| #
 | |
| # J. David Ibanez implemented plural forms. Bruno Haible fixed some bugs.
 | |
| #
 | |
| # TODO:
 | |
| # - Lazy loading of .mo files.  Currently the entire catalog is loaded into
 | |
| #   memory, but that's probably bad for large translated programs.  Instead,
 | |
| #   the lexical sort of original strings in GNU .mo files should be exploited
 | |
| #   to do binary searches and lazy initializations.  Or you might want to use
 | |
| #   the undocumented double-hash algorithm for .mo files with hash tables, but
 | |
| #   you'll need to study the GNU gettext code to do this.
 | |
| #
 | |
| # - Support Solaris .mo file formats.  Unfortunately, we've been unable to
 | |
| #   find this format documented anywhere.
