Handle contexts in msgid and msgctxt (4.57 KB, patch)
2012-03-27 08:35 UTC, Philip Withnall 		committed Details | Review

Description Bastien Nocera 2007-12-19 13:38:54 UTC 
For epiphany-style contexts in msgid, we should:
- Translate known contexts (eg. "Download|customize")
- Pass the context to the do_trans() function if there is one

(I'm not working on this ;)
Comment 1 Thomas Thurman 2007-12-19 15:06:35 UTC 
I will figure out a way to do this. But you know ephy-style contexts are soon-to-be deprecated?

Comment 2 Bastien Nocera 2007-12-19 15:31:09 UTC 
Didn't know. But it looks like we should handle msgctxt then (as well).

Handle contexts in msgid and msgctxt

Have a patch. This handles both styles of contexting.

Is the script still used? If so, is this patch still useful?
Comment 5 Philip Withnall 2018-09-28 09:03:49 UTC 
I don’t know if the script is still used, but it shouldn’t have bitrotted. The script is timeless. The patch should still be useful; could do with some review.
