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

[Dan Wilcox]

I was able to apply the diff, more or less. There was a slight positioning change after I removed the menu list string, so someone might want to do a quick double check: https://github.com/pure-data/pure-data/blob/703c1f8d5d268ceb74e99d1420906fd1519aca24/po/fr.po <https://github.com/pure-data/pure-data/blob/703c1f8d5d268ceb74e99d1420906fd1519aca24/po/fr.po>

For translators, there should be new strings to add and other to update (see po/README.txt for details). For users, the menu titles should now be translated for those languages which do so.

The reason why Pd can't start is that the strings in that list are used to call procedures ala pd_start_file, pd_start_edit, etc. Changing them means tcl errors early in the startup and nothing seems to happen. I figured this out the hard way too :)
