[Mailman-i18n] Reposted: HTML or not HTML

[Clytie Siddall]

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 &lt;br&gt; - so you can  
use links,\n

while others use them without entities.

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. :)
