[ardour-dev] Re: Finnish translation?

[Mikael Kurula]

Hello! :)

I have not really started translating yet, so I cannot answer your
question. But I will let you know what I found out when I have some
messages translated.

I saw a strange message (one of the first few):
#: gtk_ardour/ardour_ui.cc:807
msgid "% "
msgstr ""
I have not encountered such a string earlier, but on the other hand
I'm not an experienced translator. If this string is not related to
the problem, and otherwise ok - what is its meaning?

The Finnish translation of Audacity (1.2) seems good at first glance.
I mailed the translator, but he has not yet replied.

Ha en skön sommar! :)
Mikael
