Comment (by humdinger):
I have corrected the German comment parts (see the _4_updated.diff),
though it might be more helpful for the translators to just give the
variable, e.g. "%toDoAction". Then they can use the browser's find
function to see where it is used.[[BR]]
Also, the generated en.catkeys don't seem to like the linebreaks in the
comments. Those are shown as:[[BR]]
{{{"As in 'if you rename this folder...' (en) \t\t\t\t'Wird dieser Ordner
umbenannt...' (de)"}}}[[BR]]
If HTA can deal with "\n" try to use that instead...
One more thing:
{{{
+ buttonLabel.ReplaceFirst("%toConfirmAction",
+ BString(toConfirmAction).Capitalize().String());
}}}
This would only change the capitalization of the button text, not in the
alert text telling the user to "hold down the Shift key and click
"%toConfirmAction". Maybe the code-wise capitalization can be removed
completely and the to be translated string is capitalized directly.
I can't find the time (and frankly the will :) ) to mess around with the
unsorted catkeys to build up a de.catkeys by hand. @PulkoMandy: Yes, a
little tool to automate translation tests would be very much
appreciated.[[BR]]
But it does compile, so I'd say commit it and I'll see if what pops up in
HTA is correct.
