This translation stuff is still very new, so we'll definitely have to improve 
how somethings are handled.  One example, things can be made to resize 
automatically based on the wide of the actual text, meaning the width of the 
buttons, etc. and therefore the window would match the width of the actual 
displayed text.

In the case of the Preferences window, because of the way its coded, that's not 
easy to do.  So I just increased the width to 500 to give more room for the 
different languages.  No doubt, Greek will not be the only language that needs 
more room.  Spanish, Portugeuse, German, Japanese, and Chinese fit perfectly in 
500.  The window just looked bad at 600, so that's why I choose 500.
