What is translation-filter ?
It is a tool to imporve l10n quality by helping in finding different corner cases. This is being developed as a part of aukur.org.in . It is having two GUI(s), one Gnome and one for KDE and a command line version. Couple of the features are only available in the command line version.
Different features of translation-filter:
- It can search for word(s) in a given directory or some selected files. The result will be saved as an HTML file or can also be seen in the command line. By using this features one can check consistency of usage
- It can create single word based list from the given .po files. It will contain both the term and translated string(s)
- It can check for any unattached dependent vowel sign. Right now it can find that for the Indic languages. Like ি and া can not sit beside

translation-filter 0.3 released
I just released translation-filter 0.3. You can download it from here.
The scope of development is to create a rudimentary tool that can allow comparing the quality of string translations in an offline mode. For example, the KDE Project uses a web based tool that allows strings to be searched in translated content.
The current set of requirements for this offline tool are:
+ to be able to take as input a directory path containing multiple .po files
+ to be able to take as input an English string or word to be searched within the .po files collection
+ to be able to display every occurring instance of the English string or word along with equivalent translated string
+ to be able to display the name of the files being searched
+ to be able to save the search result set in an .html file
It uses PyQt4 for the gui, used QWebView to render the result. You will also require translate-toolkit (at least 1.0.1 version, available in Fedora 9).
Among the new features (mostly in the command line version) , using -t or –term you can search for any single term. You can even check for unattached dependent vowel signs of Indic languages using -d option.
