srih4ri / translate.rb
Created March 16, 2011 15:35
Generates a new ml.yml using the current en.yml , using old ml.yml's translated string wherever possible . This is really ugly though , there must be something that actually does this neatly
# encoding: UTF-8
require 'yaml'
sf = File.open("original_ml.yml", "r")
src = YAML::load(sf.read)
sf.close
rf = File.open("current_en.yml", "r")
ref = YAML::load(rf.read)
rf.close
