Tools for working with translations in R
If we want to fully support and encourage use of glue strings, it would be nice to check that the `msgstr` contains the same `{}` wrapper components as the `msgid`....
Continuing from discussion from https://github.com/MichaelChirico/potools/pull/234#issuecomment-962698623 The source claims it's only run in UTF8 locale because "substr()" needs to count UTF-8: https://github.com/wch/r-source/blob/430360aa394b02046dd7175c0fc55e347e947f80/src/library/tools/R/translations.R#L21-L22. But I don't think that's true any longer (as...

I'm starting to use this package. I created the .pot file to my package and I noticed that the way it writes source file locations is not compatible with poedit....
Follow-up to #199 which implemented a really hacky fix that in turn broke some old logic for detecting erroneous C files. See discussion there. Doing complete macro expansion seems prohibitively...
Arthur Shaw mentioned it would be nice to have some tools to document translation coverage (translated vs. untranslated messages), either for CI or for more statically showing the comparison.
