Would it be possibly for the extractor.php script to be run automatically together with the tarballing script so that every available module would come with a .pot file - all ready for translation ?

Now most modules do not come with a .pot and people without PHP CLI have to get other people to make one.

Best Wishes,
Lennart

Thanks for the suggestion. The problem with the extractor script is that it takes a long time to run which makes it unsuitable for the packaging script. We need to think abotu this a little bit more, I guess.

Hi Killes,

Would it be possible to have the extractor script running at different times distributed throughout the day - so that the .pot would be created already by the time the tarballing script is run?

This way the .pot would always be up to date and available for translation without interfering with the tarball script.

I simply don't currently have the time to work on this. However, the packaging scripts are due for a major overhaul and this might become part of this. No promises, though.
