hi
after I used the pot2po script to translate the .pot files into .po files, I noticed some files contained additional line breaks (without \n to mark them). I wonder if anyone else noticed the problem (say in dbaccess/source/ui/app.po). as I said, the line breaks didn't exist in the .pot files.
will this cause a problem later on, in building OOo? how do I translate these msgids in kBabel? do I insert manual line breaks or not? I wouldn't want to have to translate these things twice.
example:
#: app.src#RID_STR_FORMS_HELP_TEXT.string.text msgid "" "Create a form by specifying the record source, controls, and control " "properties." msgstr ""
thanks.

Hi
The PO standard implies that separating strings into separate quoted lines here does not imply the presence of a line break in the string - that is, only \n is a line break. So these line breaks are irrelevant to translation, and you can do with them whatever you want... just make sure that you do treat \n consistently
Hope that helps
