Hello again :) As I work my way through the Mailman messages.po file, I notice that many of the strings use HTML code, and I wonder if this is universal. Can I treat all the strings in that file as though they were HTML code? In other words, when I use something like a right arrow or angle bracket in any string, do I need to insert it as an entity, or are there strings which are not HTML? I am confused on that point, because some original strings contain entities for angle brackets, ___ po:715 reference: ⑤ Mailman/Gui/General.py:134 Original: ⌘0 The text will be treated as html <em>except</em> that\n newlines will be translated to <br> - so you can use links,\n ___ while others use them without entities. ___ po:717 reference: ⑤ Mailman/Gui/General.py:143 Original: ⌘0 This text will be prepended to subject lines of messages \n posted to the list, to distinguish mailing list messages in in\n mailbox summaries. Brevity is premium here, it's ok to shorten\n long mailing list names to something more concise, as long as it\n still identifies the mailing list.\n You can also add a sequencial number by %%d substitution\n directive. eg.; [listname %%d] -> [listname 123]\n (listname %%05d) -> (listname 00123)\n ___ Thankyou for any help you can offer on this. :) from Clytie (vi-VN, Vietnamese free-software translation team / nhóm Việt hóa phần mềm tự do) http://groups-beta.google.com/group/vi-VN
