translate_package: is each translation saved on disk somewhere? #273

hi @MichaelChirico I tried following the instructions on the readme:

Running the following will launch an interactive dialog prompting for translations message-by-message:
# es.po & es.mo Spanish translation files will be produced
translate_package('potools', 'es')

I got the interactive dialog, and I entered a few translations, but then I quit R in the middle of that process. I was assuming that each of the translations I entered would be saved to disk somewhere, is that true? All I see is a po/R-pkg.pot file but that does not have any of the translations I entered at the interactive prompt.

hmm partial progress is supposed to be saved in po/R-... sorry to hear it looks like your work was lost 😔

could you share more details about your setup/flow?
