How do I make a string with a variable translatable?
Say in English I have
"Press " + X + " to find."
But for a translation to other languages it might not be sufficient to
translate "Press " and " to find." and string them together in the
same way as in English. So, maybe it is not sufficient to do:
_("Press ") + X + _(" to find.")
Or is it up to the translator to figure this out (maybe the added
spaces are an indication for there being a particular context)?
Use bformat(). Random example:
docstring s = bformat(_("The document class `%1$s' "
"could not be loaded."), from_utf8(argument));

Thanks!
