I was wondering.. why isn't _() documented at all ? I thought it had a problematic name (for builds) but it appears to be fine on my box. Anyone againt me adding _.xml under gettext/function ? (documenting it as an alias)
Back when the issue with the _() was raised it was decided not to document it as an function.
At the time I wasn't involved in the PHP project, so I don't know nothing about this thread. Can you tell me what were the reasons of making such a choice ?
As it is written in the howto, all file names should have _ replaced with -. This is for historical reasons, and we are not going to break the rule. So if you would add such a file, you should name it "-.xml", but this is not a valid filename AFAIK. Goba
