Poedit Add-on: Integration with Google’s Machine Translator

Poedit is free cross-platform gettext catalogs (.po files) editor, used by translators to perform side by side translation. Using the gettext command, text content from a website can be extracted and save to a .pot file. The .pot file serves as the master copy of all the text content. It will be used to compare with an existing .po file and to update it if there is any changes to the web content. Then, a .mo file will be generated by Poedit.

The program is perfect if only singles words such as name of Country, etc, can be auto translated by Google Translators. Well, it can save the time of translators for sure!

An add-on was developed to solve this problem. This stand alone program check through a .po files and retrieve translated text from Google and update the .po file automatically. You can save at least 20% of your time in translation.

  19. This is lone of the pernicious effects of affirmative action. In our PC/affirmative effectiveness way of life, we likely to discern the achievements and promotions of minorities as a consequence of affirmative strength policies in lieu of of distinct diligence and talent. This undermines these rather achievements.
    Another problem here is that it sets altruist morality at odds with the higher divine morality. If the higher fairness is customary to jurist the Carnage, fatal infection outbreaks, etc, as good, while human morality wishes arbitrate them bad, then the ‘fair’ in each of these moralities are different. Elevated on the higher habits is not what we mean about good.
