Hi,
I'm currently adding comments to the strings in gfs2-utils which will
eventually appear in the translation template, e.g.
/* Translators: We use rpmatch(3) to match the answers to y/n
questions in the user's own language, so the [y/n] here must also be
translated to match one of the letters in the pattern printed by
`locale -k yesexpr` and one of the letters in the pattern printed by
`locale -k noexpr` */
printf( _("Are you sure you want to proceed? [y/n]"));
If possible I'd like to only add comments to just the ambiguous and
hard-to-translate strings. The above example was fairly obviously in
need of explanation (I think) but other strings are less obviously in
need of comments.
Do you have any guidelines or advice to help me identify which strings
will require comments before they can be translated?
Thanks,
Andy
