Closing this as won't fix:

• I got no feedback,
• This is a bit out of the scope of polib IMHO.

Feel free to reopen the issue to discuss it though.

Hi,

just an update on this issue.
I've briefly looked at the gettext documentation and what --check does is:

• check-format : this is going a bit complicated to implement I think (I'm not sure what it really does),
• check-header: this will be more trivial,
• check-domain : I guess this is not relevant for polib.

So the plan would be to add a POFile.check() method that would call POFile.check_format() and POFile.check_header().

I'm still very busy on other things, do you guys at indifex can work on a patch for this ?
I'll be happy to integrate it.
