* Add support for context-based translation. For example only one translation for "None" can be provided and will be used everywhere "None" is used in the english GUI. In french depending on the grammatical gender of the word to which it refers (e.g. Extra Path, Soundfont) the translation should be different but for the moment it is not possible. The gettext tools now support a standard way to do context-based translation (see http://www.gnu.org/software/hello/manual/gettext/Contexts.html) but our po2c script does not. The TranslationManager would also need to be modified. | |||
