Subject: '\' is not escaped
\ is not valid in gettext, it needs to be escaped as \\ e.g. This text: cd foo; \ rm -rf * Is written in the POT as: msgid "cd foo; \\n" "rm -rf *\n" Which will then be treated as an in-line newline, which it isn't. It should be: msgid "cd foo; \\\n" "rm -rf *\n"
Created pull request for patch https://github.com/cosimo/perl5-locale-po/pull/3
Merged the pull request. I will cut a release to CPAN during the weekend hopefully. Sorry for holding this up.
0.25 has been released to CPAN now.
