Re: [sugar] Some extra information for Etoys translation
IMHO the comments in the POT are not explicit enough for a translator to understand their meta nature. They should have examples. Also the phrase could be made to stand out better. Maybe a common prefix, and use all upper-case? PO_LANGUAGE_NAME might alert the translator better than Language-Name which looks like any regular phrase: #: TRANSLATORS: Put in the name of your language, NOT the translation of language name. E.g. Español or Русский. msgid PO_LANGUAGE_NAME And since Etoys does not use a single font like Scratch does, why do we try to mimic it? - Bert - Am 02.09.2008 um 02:02 schrieb Yoshiki Ohshima: Thank you, Sayamindu, By the way, while trying to copy the extra information from Scratch to Etoys, I found that some translators translated the keyword, when they are supposed to provide the information.

Re: [sugar] Some extra information for Etoys translation
I think we could split the system configuration stuff into another domain to avoid such confusion. /Korakurider On Tue, Sep 2, 2008 at 9:02 AM, Yoshiki Ohshima [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Thank you, Sayamindu, By the way, while trying to copy the extra information from Scratch to Etoys, I found that some translators translated the keyword, when they are supposed to provide the information.
