Dear friends,
Synaptics displays "Size: 3145k". It seems that the po only has the string
"Size:".
As a result, Synatics may be incompatible with RTL languages like Arabic. Even
in Asian languages, this may be a problem as ":" is rarely used. If you stick
something after ":", this may be a problem.
Now, in French:
"Size: 3145k" should be coded as:
"Size: %d k" Which is tranlated into French by
"Size: 4135 Ko" (notice 'k' becomes Ko).
Apparently, only the entries in the General tab are impacted:
Status:
-> Status: %s
Section:
-> Section: %s
Size:
-> Size: %d
etc...
Cheers, Jean-Michel
