Hmm...  It would be nice if the string
"<big>Hello world!</big>\n"
"This program is running as "
"process number <b>%d</b>."
could be split into two, because there already several are other
strings that say "This program is running..." and one other
that says "Hello world!".  Staying close to these existing
strings makes translating the new ones easier for translators.

Also, the string "<big><u>This is another text</u></big>"
should end with a period after "text".  And when the above
split is made, I think the "yet another text" string becomes
unneeded.
