http://gambaswiki.org/bugtracker/edit?object=BUG.2391&from=L21haW4-

Brian G reported a new bug.

Summary
-------

More Information When msgfmt fails to compile language file.

Type             : Request
Priority         : Medium
Gambas version   : Master
Product          : Development Environment


Description
-----------

Right now when msgfmt fails to compile a language file, the ide displays that it failed
it does not include any information as to why it did not compile the file.

You need to go to the directory containing the bad file and run the msgfmt program yourself to see what the error is.
Such as a bad/unmatched \n at the start of a line.

When your inside the IDE translate page and click verify it says everything seems to be ok!
But msgfmt compile fail.

Would it be possible to display the error message inside the ide.

Would save a little time when trying to figure out what happened.
