Yikes. Okay, will now go find out what a translation domain is.
However, since woodrats I think are only sold only with English
instructions, I guess their owners will probably read engish...

Tried
(gimp-plugin-menu-branch-register "<Image>/File/Create" "W_oodrat")
(gimp-plugin-menu-branch-register "<Image>/File/Create" "_Woodrat")
followed by
(script-fu-menu-register "wrdhb_create_half_blind_dovetail"
"<Image>/File/Create/W_oodrat")
or
(script-fu-menu-register "wrdhb_create_half_blind_dovetail"
"<Image>/File/Create/_Woodrat")
or
(script-fu-menu-register "wrdhb_create_half_blind_dovetail"
"<Image>/File/Create/Woodrat")
Always got the "Woodrat" folder under File | Create menu, no shortcut
key indicated.
Yrs,
