I like to position my widgets in .theme file and just get pointers in python. 
This way I'm separating gui from the code (a bit like ui <-> cpp files in 
Qt).

createText(widget, 0, 0, 100, 20, _('%d Apples') % 2) should work equally 
well. It's just the way I like to do my themes.

Python should handle those well.

After making modifications to code so that all strings are surrounded by _('') 
pot file should be made by running xgettext liquid_weather.py -o 
liquid_weather.pot. After that shell/python script could be made to convert 
existing translations to po files.
