Re: Where and how should I write translations

I tried to create second .po file with manual translations, but had no
luck either :( `compilemessages` creates the second .mo file, but doesn't
use it in the app. Only django.mo is used, but all my translations in
django.po file are commented out after I run `makemessages`.

In the documentation:

"(The caveat with using variables or computed values, as in the previous
two examples, is that Django's translation-string-detecting utility,
django-admin.py makemessages, won't be able to find these strings. More on
makemessages later.)"

But there is no "later" :(

Thanks,
Martin
