I've never used gettext with Cheetah but perhaps including a line like:
#from gettext import gettext as _

at the top of your template might help?

Can anybody show me how to mark text for translation?<br>

I am using Cheetah 2.4.4 for these tests. We have Cheetah 0.9.15 in<br>
production, but I believe that 0.9.15 does not have gettext functionality a=

all- is that correct?<br>
