po_update

<code>po_update()</code> updates existing <code>.po</code> file after the <code>.pot</code> file has changed.
There are four cases:<ul>
<li>New messages: added with blank <code>msgstr</code>.</li>
<li>Deleted messages: marked as deprecated and moved to the bottom of the file.</li>
<li>Major changes to existing messages: appear as an addition and a deletion.</li>
<li>Minor changes to existing messages: will be flagged as fuzzy.
<div class="sourceCode"></div><pre><code>#, fuzzy, c-format
#| msgid "Generating en@quot translations"
msgid "Updating '%s' %s translation"
msgstr "memperbarui terjemahan bahasa en@quot..."
</code></pre>
The previous message is given in comments starting with <code>#|</code>.
Translators need to update the actual (uncommented) <code>msgstr</code> manually,
using the old <code>msgid</code> as a potential reference, then
delete the old translation and the <code>fuzzy</code> comment (c-format should
remain, if present).</li>
</ul>

Translating messages in R packages is managed using the po
top-level directory and the 'gettext' program. This package provides
some helper functions for building this support in R packages, e.g.
common validation & I/O tasks.
