jp (pubsub): new search command: search is a kind of "grep for Pubsub". It's a powerful command which allows to look for specific data in a pubsub node, recurse sub nodes if requested, and execute an action on the result. search allows to look for items with following filter: - simple text search - regex - xpath - python code filters are read an applied in the order in which they appear on the command line. Then flags can be used to modify behaviour, currently there are: - ignore-case to specify if search must be case sensitive or not - invert to invert result of the search (i.e. don't match instead of match) - dot-all which is specific for regex, cf. re module - only-matching which return the matching part instead of the full item Once a item match filters, an action is applied to it, currenlty there are: - print, which do a simple output of the full item (default) - exec, which run a jp command, specifying the service, node and item corresponding to the match - exteral, which run a external command, sending the full item on stdin By default search is only done on requested node, but if max-depth is more than 0, sub nodes will be searched too.

5 To translate a file, you can use a dedicated tool as the excellent gtranslator:

7 - use the template .po file (e.g. sat.po) and name it to your translated language (e.g. fr.po for french); you can preferably generate a new template directly from the source with the following command (eventually adapted, the following command use zsh's globbing syntax), launched from root sat dir after having emptied the build directory:

10 - then to start a new translation, copy i18n/sat.po to your language file, e.g. cd i18n; cp sat.po fr.po

14 - once you translation is finished (or partly finished: the english sentences are used if there is no translation), you can test them by generating a binary and moving it to the right place with the following commands:

25 You can check the fr.po file to see how it's done and to know what to put while you set up you translation tool.
