please see the comment that i left on the tracker. your po file is a lot smaller than the translation we current have in trunk - please make sure to always use the latest version from trunk for further work.

I updated the file in latest *.pot.
and the size differences between trank and mine are due to the UFOpaedia entry of the untranslation.

Update translations!
http://sourceforge.net/tracker2/?func=detail&aid=2523529&group_id=157793&atid=805244

Japanese translations (mo, po) - now based on trunk ver.
some *.ufos for correct translation - Please make it to the mark correctly (Became independent) if it was wrong
sentences.
Its independence is necessary for a correct Japanese translations.

thanks - but have you read the comment i gave to you? ;)
please submit patches - not full files, and please also don't add the mo file. it's autogenerated from the po file.

and another new beg - please don't use 7z (should also not be needed when you submit patches instead of full files ;) )

Can you elaborate on the ambiguity for the "P. Armour" and "Heavy W." changes you made? Where do the translations for these words differ?

"P. Armour" -> independence aircraft armour(when equip aircraft) and item effect display (Armour)
"Heavy W." -> independence item weight... i checked that, now already independence, sorry :o

but, The independence of the following words is necessary in the addition.
menu_bases.ufo "Aircraft" to the "Hangar"

The thing is that I don't want to rename stuff for translation purposes. Homonyms should be handled in the po files (I don't know how this is possible since I don't really know gettext but mattn thinks it can be done) rather than by arbitrarily altering the source text.

One thing I tried is opening the po file in a text editor and changing
Code: [Select]
#: ../base/ufos/menu_team.ufo:1247 client/campaign/cl_mapfightequip.c:1227
#: client/cl_ufopedia.c:195
msgid "Armour"
msgstr "アーマー"
to
Code: [Select]
#: ../base/ufos/menu_team.ufo:1247
msgid "Armour"
msgstr "アーマー"

#: client/campaign/cl_mapfightequip.c:1227
#: client/cl_ufopedia.c:195
msgid "Armour"
msgstr "アーマー"

Which seems to work for poedit. Unfortunately, I think this is not a solution. I don't know if gettext would understand, and besides the fields would be merged again on the next automatic update. But I'm pretty sure this is what we want.

Btaxis, we have updated our c::b package due to gettext, old version doesn`t support message context. New one support, and this feature is used in uforadiant-*.po. There is special token, but I don`t know details.

I tried msgctxt.
It doesn't seem to work with UFOAI.
Perhaps, it is necessary to update gettext.

We updated the package not too long ago. When did you last download the C::B package (if that's what you're using, at least)?

Because I do not have the compilation environment.
Following Build is used.

If it introduces Build that uses it if this doesn't use New Gettext, it is glad.

ok, I build latest tarball using new C:B Package.
msgctxt seems not to work still.

"C_("context","untranslatetext")" is not recognized accurately instead of "_untranslatetext" in *.ufo to be precise.
