Re: [Question #243402]: Add/remove units

 

The key would be to update the defaults_fr.py file in the defaults folder.
That includes a bunch of language customization code that goes beyond
what's supported by normal gettext, which simply translates text in a
straightforward way.

I'm noticing a commented out unit table at around line 800 of that file --
not sure how/why that got that way. If you can provide a new table, I can
put it in the source code.

The table is formatted as follows:

("unit1", "unit2") : number,

where UNIT1 contains NUMBER of UNIT2.


Here's the one the last translator commented out for whatever reason:
# CONVERTER_TABLE = {
#     ("tasse","c. à table"):16,
#     ("lb","oz"):16,
#     ("c. à table","c. à thé"):3,
#     ("chop","tasse"):2,
#     ("pte","tasse"):4,
#     ("gallon","pte"):4,
#     ("l","pte"):1.057,
#     ("l","ml"):1000,
#     ("l","cl"):100,
#     ("l","dl"):10,
#     ("oz","g"):28.35,
#     ("kg","g"):1000,
#     ("g","mg"):1000,
#     ("c. à thé","goutte"):76,
#     ("oz","dram"):16
#    }
