python-gettext 5.0
Python Gettext po to mo file compiler.
License: BSD
Requires Python: >=3.7
Keywords: Python Gettext Msgctxt

Overview
========

This implementation of Gettext for Python includes a Msgfmt class which can be
used to generate compiled mo files from Gettext po files and includes support
for the newer msgctxt keyword.

The idea for this project had been rather ambitious, but never lived up to what
is was supposed to do. Look at Babel (http://pypi.python.org/pypi/Babel) for a
project more worthy of this projects name.

Development takes place at https://github.com/hannosch/python-gettext

  [hannosch]

0.5 - 2007-11-01

  number of startswith and isinstance calls.

  the header of a file without reading and parsing all the messages.
  [hannosch]

- Added an explicit read method, which only parses the po file and stores
  it in the messages dict, but does not compile it.
  [hannosch]

0.2 - 2007-08-23
----------------

- Bumped version number to accommodate the number in the egg info.
  [hannosch]

0.1 - 2007-06-19

- Initial implementation of a Msgfmt class which supports the generation of
  Gettext mo files including support for the new msgctxt keyword.
