Makes reference to another variable in the same translation file about python-i18n HOT 6 OPEN

This functionality is not supported by the current implementation.
I remember having the same issue with other i18n libraries and finally just passed translated strings as variables, for example:

add_translation("foo.with_variable", "%{i18n_variable} is a translation")
add_translation("foo.variable", "my variable")
print(t("foo.with_variable", i18n_variable=t("foo.variable")))

Would this fit your current use case?

I had already tested that way there and know it works without problem ..

The implementation of nested translations seems to add too much complexity,
but if you want to give it a try I am open for pull requests.

I'm new still developing python and it still do not have the knowledge to modify codes. More if you want to make this implementation so that I can test. You can count on me.

Is there any use case for this? The use-case given above is a perfect example of how translations shouldn’t work. It makes assumptions on the language’s grammar that don’t hold in general.

I think actually it would be a little bit more organized and don't require to split to files if it isn't that much
