 Project Deliverables :- The idea of the project is to automate the entire process of selective translation by providing a tool that helps the translators to translate only the relevant strings in the code when it is deployed. Also, when the code is changed, some strings may no longer be required for translation and some new strings might be added, this tool accounts for such changes for consistent translation. A GUI will be developed to present the translation status for each active module. Addition of comments to the T(...) function must also be facilitated. Finally, the tool will ensure that the translations made by the translators is integrated back into the main code of Eden.
 
-1) 1) Retrieval and storage of all strings :- Initially, a python script would be run to collect all the strings in the Eden system. This collection of strings will be stored in a separate file (different from the languages files)  such that each row would contain the original (untranslated) string, its location(pathname/line number), comments and a flag to indicate if it has been translated or not (initially all flags will be unset). Let us refer to this file as all_strings.txt. Note that the same string appearing in two different files will be placed in two different rows. Also, the strings will be stored sorted first on their location and then on the original string value.

 Currently, we are focusing on the python parse tree generated by using the python parser library to get the strings from the ".py" files.
