[Gambas-user] Request for implementation

[Willy Raets]

Hi all,

It would be nice if the translator in IDE could update some extra info
in the translation files (.po)

Example:
#, fuzzy
msgid ""
msgstr ""
"Project-Id-Version: PACKAGE VERSION\n"
"POT-Creation-Date: 2002-11-01 04:27+0100\n"
"PO-Revision-Date: YEAR-MO-DA HO:MI+ZONE\n"
"Last-Translator: FULL NAME <EMAIL at ...513...>\n"
"Language-Team: LANGUAGE <LL at ...514...>\n"
"MIME-Version: 1.0\n"
"Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8\n"
"Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit\n"

Po-Revision-Date could be added when saving the translation as could
Last Translator -> take name and mail from Packaging Preferences in IDE
(if available)
Or maybe this option should be a specific new Preference, as some maybe
don;t want their name and mail in the po file.

This way there is some kind of tracking on how recent or old
translations are and someone to contact who has done the most recent
translation, as it is simply added in the .po file.

What do other Gambas translators or maybe soon to be translators think
about this suggestion?
