In my project, the type of framework to build must have certain
properties. The po-mode is not one of them.
• features with a global scope
• features based on the Emacs user experience
• reuse of existing frameworks
• create a suitable workflow
In short, you should still have the feeling of using Emacs “as usual”
but with built-in translation features. For example, we could select any
text in a buffer and translate it directly using a special mode (e.g., a
transient keymap). Text properties could also be very useful to display
an analysis in-place (e.g. spell checkers highlight errors). The idea is
to make abstractions, provide a structure and guide the user during the
translation.
