Re: [l10n-dev] a localization tool.

Milos,

There's a tool already to help localization:
http://translatedfiles.netbeans.org/docs/HOWTOs/Tools-for-properties.html
cvs://pserver:cvs.netbeans.org/translatedfiles/tools/

I suppose that your tool works by simply comparing two versions of a 
file: one local and one residing in cvs. Then you may borrow our 
algorithm (see cvs), I already solved these problems.

I beleive the convert->merge->(manually)check->revert technique used 
by t13s/tools is more convenient for a normal translator guy. Because 
this printout may be rather long and swithing between the translated 
file and this long list is not very handy.

Enough? ;-)

P.S. I went from vacation, that's the reason I didn't reply for so 
long
