Please use complete sentences as much as possible and avoid storing of partial sentences in resourcestrings. I mean don't compose complete sentences in run/compile time from words or partial sentences. Such resourcestrings makes localization harder or completely impossible in languages that have different grammar: word order, system of prefixes/suffixes, agglutination, inflection, and other things that I can't imagine. An example of how NOT to fragment sentences: msgid "<no shortcut conflicts%s" msgid " remain>" msgid " to resolve>" Also fragments can have different meaning and translations depending on that they are used combined or not. -- Péter Gábor p...@freemail.hu -- _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list Lazarus@lists.lazarus.freepascal.org http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus
