[PD] problem with translation : WAS Re: testing some 0.48.0 GUI updates

[Dan Wilcox]

Here's a small update: https://github.com/pure-data/pure-data/pull/116/commits/5c3fa8b9544bbb5b1dc0378d5c93b8eac5e62b32 <https://github.com/pure-data/pure-data/pull/116/commits/5c3fa8b9544bbb5b1dc0378d5c93b8eac5e62b32>

You could incorporate those changes into your update.

As listed in the po/README.txt file, to see the changes you have to build the translation files and the re-run pd. Easiest way to do this is build pd yourself and rerun make after making any po changes.

My wife had a side job in Denver doing localization testing and said that at a certain point, you just have to limit the string sizes: "init" is already an abbreviation for "initialize."
