Question

I made a change to the TWiki.pot file and do not see it reflected in my TWiki install (I changed the mgstr for WYSIWYG from "" to "Visual Edit").

Does something need to be enabled? I looked at maketext and couldn't tell if it just passed through if something wasn't turned on.

Note: When I looked through the file, I noticed that nothing has a msgstr value. Is this file really even read in by TWiki?

Commenting on I noticed that nothing has a msgstr value

TWiki.pot has 3 parts for each string:

1. location reference (is not read)
2. translation id - this serves as the English text
3. translation - this is empty in TWiki.pot, but contains translated values in the language files

It is quite likely that for English the msgstr is not read. But to try it you would need to switch on Localisation in configure.
