Kexi Translation Issues
-----------------------
Many things can be found here: http://i18n.kde.org/translation-howto/index.html
Additional guidelines:
#1. Let's not use "Do you really want" question. Use "Do you want" question instead.
#2. Try do not overuse html formatting tags like <qt> in translated strings is you
do not need to. Eg. rather use
"<qt>" + i18n("Connection error: <b>%</b>") + "</qt>"
instead of
i18n("<qt>Connection error: <b>%</b></qt>");
#3. Use " instead of ' , ie.:
i18n("Object \"%1\" not found.") --GOOD
instead of :
i18n("Object '%1' not found.") --BAD
Also, do not use <b> tags around "" ie.
i18n("Object <b>\"%1\"</b> not found.") --BAD
