Sending an email to here is the correct procedure. It's not immediately clear
how this string should be changed the best way.
The string in question is this:
/* Display the results */
remarks_text =
_("The earliest transaction date found in this book is %s. "
"Based on the selection made above, this book will be split "
"into %d books. Click on 'Forward' to start closing the "
"earliest book.");
I guess you mean the "%d" part that should use plural forms. Firstly, I think
the %d number will *always* be larger than one. I.e. the singular form won't
appear. Also, from what I understand in the code, the %d number will most
likely be 2 or 3 or maybe 4. In other words, even though technically this
string should be run through ngettext() with plural forms, I think its current
usage means your language can just use the form for 2 or 3 or 4 values and
ignore the other cases.
Do you think this is a sufficient solution for you right now?
Regards,
Christian
