o extract_python fixes:
- now returns None for non-string arguments
- no longer extracts strings from nested function calls
refs #38
- use the correct starting line number in multi-line gettext function
calls
- avoids falsely identifying string keyword arg defaults from
function definition names that match a keyword, e.g.:
def gettext(foo='bar')
- avoid capturing translator comments embedded within a gettext
function call
- default the file encoding to iso-8859-1 instead of ascii when
missing a magic encoding comment, to emulate pre Python 2.5
behavior. Python warns about 'non-ascii' chars when there is no magic
encoding comment, but < 2.5 actually treats them as iso-8859-1 for
backwards compat (PEP 263). >= 2.5 treats them as strict ascii
o extract fixes:
- filter out messages that don't contain strings where the keyword
specification calls for
fixes #39
- filter out empty string messages and emit a warning about them,
like xgettext

Installing Babel ================ Prerequisites ------------- * Python 2.3 or later (2.4 or later is recommended) * Optional: setuptools 0.6b1 or later * Optional: pytz (strongly recommended for real time-zone support) Installation ------------ Once you've downloaded and unpacked a Babel source release, enter the directory where the archive was unpacked, and run: $ python setup.py install Note that you may need administrator/root privileges for this step, as this command will by default attempt to install Babel to the Python site-packages directory on your system. For advanced options, please refer to the easy_install and/or the distutils documentation: http://peak.telecommunity.com/DevCenter/EasyInstall http://docs.python.org/inst/inst.html Support ------- If you encounter any problems with Babel, please don't hesitate to ask questions on the Babel mailing list or IRC channel: http://babel.edgewall.org/wiki/MailingList http://babel.edgewall.org/wiki/IrcChannel
