One issue I had raised with the L10N team: how to know if characters are
special and should be somehow escaped.
For example, I can now see that the single quote should be:
«Senregistrer» should be «S'enregistrer» in French, so I guess I have to
double it.
But it only affects some of the strings, not all of them.
There should be some way to indicate that in CTI, because it's not
always possible to guess (ie, if the original string has quoted chars,
it's obvious, else, not really).
The strings end up in a Java properties file, but unfortunately there's
no simple answer to your question because the strings are output by
different methods, some of which preserve quotes and some of which
require them to be doubled. Sorry I can't be more specific than that.
Perhaps using the HTML escape (') might be more predictable, but I'd
have to check that out before recommending it.
Well, anyway, I'll do my best to do some fixes this weekend, is it still
time to get them included?
I get the output of the translation tool sent to me which includes all
the available languages, adding them in to the app isn't a huge deal. I
think the I18N folks might be able to give you a better answer on when
they intend doing the next drop.
