Hi:

I'm the galician translator of Lyx. Updating lyx-1.5.0 I have found a lot of 
messages that correspond to latex commands, more exactly from message 2148 to 
message 2612. These messages correspond to tooltips that appear when the user 
hover the cursor over a symbol of the math toolbar. 

In English, these messages are the latex commands corresponding to the symbols 
that can be selected from the math toolbar.

If the writer know the latex name for a symbol, is quicker to write it with 
the keyboard that to select it with the mouse.  So, as there is not a 
galician version of LaTeX,  I considered more useful not to translate these 
messages. So the user can learn the names of the symbols, and enter them by 
keyboard.

So I would know what the other translators think about the following 
questions:

1) Are LaTeX command translated to any language?.

If not, and I think that there are no translation, then 
2) what is the point of translating those messages in LyX.
 

Surely yours
Ramon
