Translate R Markdown and Quarto documents using poEdit

With {rmdpo} you convert R Markdown and Quarto documents into .po files that contain each block of the original document as a string to be translated using, for instance, poEdit. This is done with the rmd2po() function. Once the translation is done, you can convert the .po file back into a translated R Markdown or Quarto document with po2rmd().

When the original document is modified, just rerun the rmd2po() function to update the .po file with the new strings to be translated. The translation can be done incrementally, block by block, and the translated document can be updated incrementally as well.

Most of the work is done internally by the mdpo Python library. Special care is taken for R Markdown and Quarto specific syntax, such as the YAML header and code chunks than mdpo does not handle correctly otherwise.
