Which brings me to a question.
How do people normally deal with building the .strings files?
Run genstrings as part of the build process? (This seems overly
difficult because there is no trivial way to determine in a shell
script build phase which files are part of the current target unless
you lay them out in the file system such that it is easy to do.) This
would also have the side effect of making it difficult (since they
would be overwritten each time) to make your English (or development
region) file use typographers quotes, emdashes, etc. (OTOH if this is
how people deal with it, then perhaps PB should have a genstrings build
setting like it does for headerdoc.)
Run genstrings manually over the source when it is time to hand the
files over to localizers?
Something else entirely?
Thanks,
Jim
