Better dummy method for gettext + rails 2.2

Here’s a better dummy method that also handles the
“this is %{jo}” % {:jo => “so”} cases.

class Object
def self._(msg)
return msg
end
def _(msg)
return msg
end
end

class String
alias :__old_format_m :%
def %(hash = {})
if hash.kind_of?(Hash)
ret = dup
hash.keys.each do |key, value|
ret.gsub!("%{#{key}}", value.to_s)
end
return ret
else
ret = gsub(/%{/, ‘%%{’)
ret.__old_format_m(hash)
end
end
end
