Hi guys, It seems that most programs are getting the GNU GPL disclaimers in their interface. Can we have these messages unified?
1. Can they be shown in widgets that do not need explicit new lines and do the wordflow themselves? 2. Can we use the template "This program" instead of the real name of the program? Thus fewer mistakes will be made. For example, these will become: ------------------------------------ Sound Juicer is free software; you can Sound Juicer is distributed in the hope that it will be useful GNU General Public License along with Sound Juicer ------------------------------------ This program is free software; you can This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful GNU General Public License along with this program ------------------------------------ Even the GNU GPL v.2 advises to do so: http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/gpl.html#TOC4 It will be easier for translators, strings will not get fuzzy when program names change etc., etc. We still have time to cleanup this until next release.
