- Update to 0.18.1. Changes since 0.17:

Version 0.18.1 - June 2010
  * msggrep: A '$' anchor in a regular expression now also matches
    the end of the string, even if it does not end in a newline.
  * Dependencies:
    The libraries and programs are now linked with libunistring if
    this library is already installed.
  * Installation options:
    The configure option --with-cvs is deprecated. The 'autopoint'
    program will now use the 'git' program by default to compress its
    archive.  If the configure option --without-git is specified,
    'autopoint' will not rely on 'git', but will instead rely on a
    locally installed 3 MB large archive.
  Version 0.18 - May 2010
  * PO file format:
    There is a new field 'Language' in the header entry.  It denotes
    the language code (plus optional country code) for the PO file.
    This field can be used by automated tools, such as spell
    checkers. It is expected to be more reliable than looking at the
    file name or at the 'Language-Team' field in the header entry.
    msgmerge, msgcat, msgen have a new option --lang that allows to
    specify this field. Additionally, msgmerge fills in this new
    field by looking at the 'Language-Team' field (if the --lang
    option is not given).
  * xgettext and PO file format:
    For messages with plural forms, programmers can inform the
    translators about the range of possible values of the numeric
    argument, like this:
      /* xgettext: range: 0..15 */

Version 0.18 - May 2010
* PO file format:
There is a new field 'Language' in the header entry. It denotes
the language code (plus optional country code) for the PO file.
This field can be used by automated tools, such as spell
checkers. It is expected to be more reliable than looking at the
file name or at the 'Language-Team' field in the header entry.
msgmerge, msgcat, msgen have a new option --lang that allows to
specify this field. Additionally, msgmerge fills in this new
field by looking at the 'Language-Team' field (if the --lang
option is not given).
* xgettext and PO file format:
For messages with plural forms, programmers can inform the
translators about the range of possible values of the numeric
argument, like this:
/* xgettext: range: 0..15 */
This information 'range: 0..15' is stored in the PO file as a
flag attached to the message. Translators can produce better
translations when they know that the numeric argument is small.
* Colorized PO files:
msgattrib, msgcomm, msgconv, msgen, msgfilter, msggrep, msginit,
msgmerge, msgunfmt, msguniq, xgettext now have options --color
and --style, like msgcat has since version 0.17.
* msgmerge is up to 10 times faster when the PO and POT files are
large. This speedup was contributed by Ralf Wildenhues.
* msgcmp has a new option -N/--no-fuzzy-matching, like msgmerge has
since version 0.12.
* msgfilter now sets environment variables during the invocation of
the filter, indicating the msgid and location of the messge being
processed.
* xgettext now can extract plural forms from Qt 4 programs. The
recommended xgettext command-line options for this case are:
--qt --keyword=tr:1,1t --keyword=tr:1,2c,2t --keyword=tr:1,1,2c,3t
* xgettext --language=GCC-source now recognizes also the format
strings used in the Fortran front-end of the GCC compiler, and
marks them as 'gfc-internal-format'.
* autopoint can now be used to update several PO directories all
together.
* PO mode changes:
- PO files with plural entries are now correctly handled.
- Editing a message with previous msgid (in comments) removes these
comments. Contributed by Noritada Kobayashi.
* The po/Makevars file has a new field MSGMERGE_OPTIONS, that can
be used to adjust msgmerge's operation.
* The use of the macro AM_GNU_GETTEXT without 'external' argument
and the --intl option of the gettextize program are deprecated
and will be removed in the next release. Instead of including
the intl sources in your package, we suggest making the libintl
library an (optional) prerequisite of your package.
* Updated the meaning of 'gcc-internal-format' to match GCC 4.3.
* Installation options:
The configure options --without-cvs and --with-git can be used to
specify whether 'autopoint' will use the 'cvs' program, or the
'git' program, or none at all. These options allow to trade
dependencies against installed package size: If --without-cvs is
specified and --with-git is not specified, 'autopoint' will not
rely on 'cvs' or 'git', but will instead rely on a locally
installed a 3 MB large archive.
* Portability: The msgfilter program now also works on native Woe32
- platforms. Compiled C# message catalogs now also work with
- 'mono' versions from 2009
or newer.
