There is a part of gettext manual that saying about that: -------[ start of inserted text ]-------------------------------~-> The careful reader now might say that this again can cause problems. The heuristic might guess it wrong. This is true and therefore `xgettext' knows about a special kind of comment which lets the programmer take over the decision. If in the same line as or the immediately preceding line to the `gettext' keyword the `xgettext' program finds a comment containing the words `xgettext:c-format', it will mark the string in any case with the `c-format' flag. This kind of comment should be used when `xgettext' does not recognize the string as a format string but it really is one and it should be tested. Please note that when the comment is in the same line as the `gettext' keyword, it must be before the string to be translated. [strip] `xgettext' of course could make a wrong decision the other way round, i.e. a string marked as a format string actually is not a format string. In this case the `msgfmt' might give too many warnings and would prevent translating the `.po' file. The method to prevent this wrong decision is similar to the one used above, only the comment to use must contain the string `xgettext:no-c-format'. -------[ end of inserted text ]---------------------------------~-> So what? Please fix "%" in msgids to some non c-format string. -- URKE MMI :: blog.urosevic.net :: ICQ 104794867 RLU 280650 :: Slackware GNU/Linux

Mac User needed to test a patch
by Bryce Harrington 17 Jan '05

17 Jan '05

We've had a patch sitting around for the better part of a year that implements a Mac OS X Inkscape Launcher. Unfortunately, none of the developers have a Mac on hand to test out the patch. Can someone with a Mac volunteer to test this patch for us? You need to know how to patch and recompile Inkscape on Mac. The patch is here: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=935246&group_id=93… If you have trouble applying the patch, please report issues on that tracker item.

Help needed verifying bugs on Win32
by Bryce Harrington 17 Jan '05

17 Jan '05

We need some Windows users to help us with some of the bugs that have been reported, that don't appear to be present on Linux. If you're a Windows user, this is really important, because when 0.41 comes out you'll have a more stable tool than you would otherwise. ;-) Basically, we need you to test out what's described in the bug report and see if you have the same problem, and then add a comment indicating whether or not you could reproduce it. Any additional information you can provide on these bugs will be helpful. See the Reporting Bugs page on the main website for details. Go to the Bug Tracker on SourceForge: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=93438&atid=604306 Select "Status=Open", "SortBy=Priority/Descending", and test the bugs of priority 9. If you have a SourceForge account, please log in, so we can contact you if we need you to test something out. Or leave your name or email address if you don't have an account. Thanks, Bryce

Latest Autopackage
by Aaron Spike 16 Jan '05

16 Jan '05

The Autopackage build linked from inkscape.org seems to be dated December 20, 2004. Is this the latest Autopackage? I got the idea from inkscape.org that those builds were nightly. Perhaps the wording should be changed, if they are not. Aaron Spike

Opening large files
by unknown＠example.com 14 Jan '05

14 Jan '05

Hi, Sorry if this has already been dealt with but: I have a large svg file which I cannot open in Inkscape (v.0.40). My file is a large graph produced with graphviz (http://www.graphviz.org/), but inkscape seems to hang using 99% of the cpu when I try to open it. The same file opens in sodipodi 0.34, though admittedly it takes about 10s to open. After opening sodipodi is using about 68% of memory, on my 512Mb machine. Inkscape seems to stop using more memory after 55%, but it never opens. The svg file is about 5.1Mb. Is there anything I can do about this? I'd like to use Inkscape to view & modify this file. Thanks, gav. ___________________________________________________________ Book yourself something to look forward to in 2005.

Entry submitted to the Free Software Directory
by Felix Rabe 14 Jan '05

14 Jan '05

Hi, I just found this page: <http://www.gnu.org/software/for-windows.html>. It lists - not Inkscape, no, BUT - Sodipodi. I reckon this comes from Inkscape not being listed in the Free Software Directory <http://directory.fsf.org/>. I've just submitted a request to add an entry for Inkscape. I listed Bryce Harrington <you_know_your_email@...420... ;o)> as the maintainer and developer. The keyword list brings me to the suggestion of not just mentioning "open source editor", but also "free software editor" in the HTML keywords. Just a suggestion... Greetings, Felix

How to vectorize diagrams
by Steffen Glückselig 12 Jan '05

12 Jan '05

Hello, I'd like to vectorize some diagrams (UML interaction) and plan to use Inkscapes new 'vectorize'-feature. I couldn't come up with satisfying results, though. What do I have to take care of? What settings should I use? Thanks and best regards Steffen

Command-line options
by Steffen Glückselig 11 Jan '05

11 Jan '05

Hello, first thanks for your help on vectorizing. Then: I thought there was the possibility of invoking inkscape via the commandline to do e.g. svg2png-transfromation. I couldn't find a document describing these options. Where can I get more information on the commandline invokation? Thanks, again. Steffen
