If you really want a dummy _() you can also stuff your version into

'hi'
I tried that, but it only works for the first call...
Setting __builtin__._ to the result of the last calculation is a side
effect
of sys.displayhook. Therefore you need to change that too:
Python 2.3.3 (#1, Jan 3 2004, 13:57:08)
[GCC 3.2] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.

Thanks Peter, it does work!
It worked, BUT only for a simple function, it fails if I add a another
simple function:
My updated teststr.py script:
#--[--------------------------------------
def onOffStr(isOn) :
"""Return the "ON" string for True, "OFF" for False.
**Example**
onOffStr(True)
u'ON' onOffStr(False)
u'OFF'
"""
if isOn:
return _(u"ON")
else:
return _(u"OFF")
def inList(longString, stringList) :
"""Return True if one of the string in `stringList` is inside
`longString`.
Also return the list index.
**Example**
L = ["**", "/*"]
inList("aksdkajshd",L)
(False, 0) inList("aksdkajsh**d",L)
(True, 0)
"""
theIndex = 0
for theStr in stringList:
if longString.find(theStr) >= 0:
return (True,theIndex)
theIndex +=1
return (False,0)
def _test():
"""_test() perform docstring test"""
import doctest, teststr
return doctest.testmod(teststr)
if __name__ == "__main__":
import sys
def test_displayhook(a):
if a is not None: sys.stdout.write("%r\n" % a)
def test_translator(aString):
return aString
sys.displayhook = test_displayhook
import __builtin__
__builtin__._ = test_translator
_test()
#--]--------------------------------------
Running the test fails:

So far, I don't have a solution for writing internationalized Python
that support doctest. Surely, I am not the first one trying to do that...
