-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 According to Eric Blake on 5/19/2008 6:27 AM: | | I'm trying to use it in m4, but am failing to see the desired changes to | the m4.pot file after rerunning xgettext with the modified | XGETTEXT_OPTIONS.

Actually, I'm starting to wonder if the culprit is bad documentation in propername.h. It recommends: ~ --keyword=proper_name:1,"This is a proper name. See the gettext manual, section Names." ~ --keyword=proper_name_utf8:1,"This is a proper name. See the gettext manual, section Names." But in comparison, I was previously using _("Rene' Seindal") which made it through to the .pot file, with XGETTEXT_OPTIONS including: ~ --keyword=_ --flag=_:1:pass-c-format And xgettext --help mentions only: ~ -k, --keyword[=WORD] additional keyword to be looked for (without ~ WORD means not to use default keywords) ~ --flag=WORD:ARG:FLAG additional flag for strings inside the argument ~ number ARG of keyword WORD with no mention of your suggested syntax of --keyword=name:ARG,TEXT - -- Don't work too hard, make some time for fun as well!
