How to pass separator for language/territory in CLI ?

[x0139]

Hello! How can i pass the separator for update and compile commands in cli-mode?

By default language and territory separated by "_", but i need the "-" symbol.

Can you explain your use case a little more?

[x0139]

i have a locale folders like: en en-in en-nz

But pybabel want it like this: en en_in en_nz

I can not change folder names, cause it may broke the app.

And when i try to update or compile, for example: $ pybabel compile -f -d ./locale)

got exception this exciption:

...
  File "/Users/x0139/workspace/env/lib/python3.7/site-packages/babel/core.py", line 1094, in parse_locale
    raise ValueError('expected only letters, got %r' % lang)
ValueError: expected only letters, got 'en-in'

I also ran into this exact issue.

The translation management platform my team uses exports locale folders with - as separators.
