17181	Allow for specifying multiple locales and domains for makemessages and compilemessages commands	Amin Mirzaee	Craig Blaszczyk	"It is pretty annoying to have to run the commands separately for each language/domain combo without having to do all of them. Lets say only german, spanish, french, and italian have been changed. Your current choices are to run makemessages 8 times (4 each for django and djangojs domains), or to run it for all languages (which in the case of a large project like django itself, will take much much longer).

This patch allows you to specify multiple languages and/or domains when doing translation.

The old way:
{{{
django-admin.py makemessages -d django -l de
django-admin.py makemessages -d django -l fr
django-admin.py makemessages -d django -l es
django-admin.py makemessages -d django -l it
django-admin.py makemessages -d djangojs -l de
django-admin.py makemessages -d djangojs -l fr
django-admin.py makemessages -d djangojs -l es
django-admin.py makemessages -d djangojs -l it
django-admin.py compilemessages -l de
django-admin.py compilemessages -l fr
django-admin.py compilemessages -l es
django-admin.py compilemessages -l it
}}}
With this patch:
{{{
django-admin.py makemessages -d django -d djangojs -l de -l fr -l es -l it
django-admin.py compilemessages -l de -l fr -l es -l it
}}}


Backwards compatibility is maintained, and the existing defaults remain.
