Re: [Matplotlib-users] NavigationToolbar internationalization

[Michael D. <md...@st...>]

matplotlib currently has no i18n support.  It would be a nice feature to 
have, it would just take someone with the motivation to do it to provide 
a patch. Python has gettext support in the standard library, so it 
should be reasonably straightforward: just the usual busywork of finding 
translatable strings and marking them.  I think it's fair to say that 
internationalizing the GUI messages would be reasonably easy, 
internationalizing docstrings would be significant work, and 
internationalizing the API very close to impossible.  I assume you're 
only talking about the first here.

Cheers,
Mike
