Comment(by ohshima):
Replying to [comment:2 korakurider]:
How about having special entry in PO (not message at all actually) that
msgstr is switch whether Pango is to be used, then we could configure appropriate setting for each languages. (like that Scratch have language dependent configurations in POs)
Yes. That would be good. And language name can be supplied (#8150), too, as Scratch does.
I'm writing a change set that "exports" the extra information into the .pot file (the keys are exactly the same as Scratch; we can interpret it to figure our whether pango should be used or not). In the worst case, within 24 hours it should show up on the pootle server.
So the new strings are at the top of
http://etoys.laptop.org/src/po/templates/etoys.pot
but it is not quite clear what values a translator would have to fill in. Example values should be added as comment.
Also, which of these enables Pango? And why is there a space in " Language-Name"?
Anyway, this gives power to the translators, so it is good. But I'm not sure Scratch is the best example to base this on, it has rather simple needs font-wise ...
