The path to the lyx binary is either <build_dir>/bin (CMake) or
<build_dir>/src (autotools). This means the po directory can be found one
directory up.
Since 00387b2a38 it is possible to construct a dummy Messages object
which does not translate at all. With the old gettext implementation, a
Messages object without a defined language would have used a language from
an environment variable. Therefore, the duplicate definition of _() is no
longer needed. This gettext removal was really a good idea!
This is done by handling explicitly a dummy Message object, where no parsing of mo file is attempted. This avoids in turn that the lyxerr object is used during initialization of a global dummy Message object.
With gettext, we have been forced to install .mo files at the right place in order to read them. Now that we have our code, the situation changes.
* Add new method Package::messages_file(code), when returns the right path, depending on whether we are running in place.
* In Messages class use that intead of the existing one.
Get the default language by a mix of QLocale and LyXRC::gui_language
Known limitations:
* encoding is supposed to be UTF-8 (the charset parameter is checked);
* context is not handled (implemented differently in LyX);
* plural forms not implemented (not used for now in LyX);.
* tThe byte endianness of the machine on which the .mo file have been
built is expected to be the same as the one of the machine where this
code is run.
Unfortunately automake does not support file names with spaces for files in
EXTRA_DIST: These file names are put into a shell list, and it is impossible
quote the name in a way that works both with the shell and with make.
Therefore I removed the corresponding test file.
In roundtrip mode, tex2lyx produces documents with extension lyx.lyx, so that
the original files are not overwritten on re-export. This was not done for
included documents which were converted, and this broke 'make dist'.
(unless it's already there, in which case it should move to the end of the next paragraph).
Change the preference setting name (mac_like_word_movement to mac_like_cursor_movement)
to better reflect its function.
Patch and description from Bennett Helm
- InsetBox.cpp:
a framebox without inner box and without a width is \fbox
a framebox with inner box is also \fbox
a framebox without inner box and with width is \framebox
- GuiBox.cpp: the width checkbox must be checked if there is width
- this was forgotten to commit;
(without this we would get invalid LaTeX code when changing in the box dialog a makebox without a width to a minipage and press apply - a makebox required to specify a width, at least an invisible one like "0cm")
* InsetBox and GuiBox: Use proper empty length instead of the broken -9.99col% trick
* some slight changes to the logic of GuiBox to make sure that values are set as needed.
* lengthToWidget(): handle properly the empty length case. All the other related Qt helpers did it already, it was probably an oversight. Also set the default_unit parameter as optional (not needed in this patch actually, but I got carried away :)
* allow generating LaTeX code for an empty length, since some broken code does that.
