Hello to the drupal team.

I'm quit pleased with your efforts with drupal and it's documentation. Still I missed a point about exporting localized strings via the po export function in drupal version 4.5.0 on debian GNU/linux ppc. After about 700 localized strings the .po file was about 200k, still around 50k when gzipped. After two more rounds of translations I've done about 1100 strings. But the exported de.po file is now only 20k still unszippt! What happend?

How can I reset this? I like to export every translatet string, not only those that were added since the last export. I don't even have all exports anymore.

I haven't found an answer nor a hint or an advice about that feature in the handbook.

What's all about it?

I am not sure why the size of your PO file changed. Please count the strings in the file with the gettext tools. Drupal will always export all the strings it knows about.
