If you’ve ever worked on localizing an application or website, you may be familiar with the .po files used with GNU gettext and compatible tools.
I’ve written a script which can take a .po file and translate any untranslated strings with Google Translate. This may not be a ‘release quality’ translation, but does speed up the job of a real translator, who can simply proof read and correct the machine-translated entries.
See it in action here: http://pepipopum.dixo.net
I’ve released the source under the Affero GPL too, so you can tweak or host it yourself. The version hosted above does have a one second delay between translations, so if you want to go faster you’re encouraged to do exactly that!
Hope someone else finds it useful.
