Sorry for this.You are right. In Brazilian Portuguese we don't put a comma before an etc because etc. = "et cetera" = "and other choices". We don't use a comma before an "and". Two examples: Comprei batata, tomate e cebola. Comprei batata, tomate, cebola etc. But, after your comment, I searched in Internet and I learned that we must to use a comma before "etc." when writting in English.

You helped to improve this package. My native language is Brazilian Portuguese and your help was very good. I will upload a new revision now and it will close this bug. Have a nice day!
