1) sorry for my misunderstanding: from gnu cash.org download mac osx intel http://downloads.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/gnucash/Gnucash-Intel-2.6.19-1.dmg ls -l /Applications/Gnucash.app/Contents/Resources/share/locale/nl/LC_MESSAGES/gnucash.mo.bkp -rw-r--r--@ 1 paul admin 509687 Dec 17 17:31 /Applications/Gnucash.app/Contents/Resources/share/locale/nl/LC_MESSAGES/gnucash.mo.bkp from git clone https://github.com/Gnucash/gnucash.git ls -l ~/Develop/gnucash/gnucash/po/nl.po -rw-r--r-- 1 paul staff 968123 Jan 19 01:54 /Users/paul/Develop/gnucash/gnucash/po/nl.po i think that they are NOT the same. 2) my question remains: i made an insignificat change to the .po, run mnsgfmt and copy the .mo to the app. i verified that the change is present in the app .mo it is not pcied up by gnu cash. i still dont understand how to do it right. please explain. if you say that the option system doesnt use the .mo please explain how other option texts do get translated. -paul. _______________________________________________ gnucash-user mailing list gnucash-user@gnucash.org https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-user ----- Please remember to CC this list on all your replies.
