Hi, We are pleased to announce the release of GNU gettext 0.19.
GNU gettext allows programs to produce messages in the user's native language. It consists of - runtime libraries for C, C++, Java, C#, Shell programs. - tools for programmers and translators. Here are the compressed sources and a GPG detached signature[*]: ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gettext/gettext-0.19.tar.gz ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gettext/gettext-0.19.tar.gz.sig Use a mirror for higher download bandwidth: http://www.gnu.org/order/ftp.html [*] Use a .sig file to verify that the corresponding file (without the .sig suffix) is intact. First, be sure to download both the .sig file and the corresponding tarball. Then, run a command like this: gpg --verify gettext-0.19.tar.gz.sig If that command fails because you don't have the required public key, then run this command to import it: gpg --keyserver keys.gnupg.net --recv-keys D7E69871 and rerun the 'gpg --verify' command. This release was bootstrapped with the following tools: Autoconf 2.69 Automake 1.14.1 Bison 3.0.2 Noteworthy changes in 0.19: * Programming languages support: - Desktop Entry: xgettext and msgfmt now support .desktop files, used by desktop applications, as input and output. - GSettings: xgettext now supports GSettings schema file format used by GNOME applications. - JavaScript: xgettext now recognizes E4X (ECMA-357) constructs. - PHP: Single and double quotes around heredoc markers are now recognized. - Python: The acceptable format specifiers in the braced-syntax format strings is now limited to the Standard Format Specifiers, to reasonably avoid false-positives. - Scheme: The gettext shorthand form _"abc", used by GIMP script-fu, is now recognized by xgettext. - C and Vala: xgettext now recognizes C99-style Unicode character escapes. * The --add-location option of msgattrib, msgcat, msgcomm, msgconv, msgen, msgfilter, msggrep, msgmerge, msguniq, and xgettext commands now takes an optional argument 'never', 'full', or 'file', to control the format of "#: ..." comments. * msgfmt now has --source option to keep generated .java file when running in Java mode. * msgattrib now has --empty option that sets msgstr to empty when clearing fuzzy flag. * msgexec and msgfilter pass the plural information to subprocess through the environment variable MSG{EXEC,FILTER}_MSGID_PLURAL and MSG{EXEC,FILTER}_PLURAL_FORM. * New built-in filters 'quot' and 'boldquot' have been added to msgfilter. These filters convert Latin quotation marks ('...', "...") into Unicode quotation marks (for example, U+2018) if possible, similar to the sed commands used in po/Rules-quot and po/Rules-boldquot. * The po/Makevars file has a couple of new options PO_DEPENDS_ON_POT and DIST_DEPENDS_ON_UPDATE_PO, that can be used to adjust the behavior of updating PO files on demand. * xgettext now strips prefixed string before the comment tag. This is useful to support C-style comment like this: /* * TRANSLATORS: first line * second line */ In this example, the extracted comment does not contain "* " at the beginning of each line. * libgettextpo library: - Memory leak fixes in the PO file parser. * Documentation: - A complete example showing the use of GNU gettext in a GNOME 3 application has been added.
