Kit,
So you have strings in the properties files that are not to be
translated? Can you provide an example?

A question for Paul, Dennis or Gabe:
When we load the translation server with translatable files, is there a
way to mark a file, or strings in a file as DO NOT TRANSLATE? I've seen
a few cases where a file, or strings in a file, should not be
translated.
Otherwise, the code logic will not work.
If we don't have a way to do that now, we have to come up with a
system,
like a special comment in the file, so we can skip translating the file
or strings. Maybe we can do something in Pascal's Message Editor side.
Pascal, any comment?
We also need a way for the developer of the properties file to tell us
if the file will be processed by Java MessageFormat class. Depending on
whether the file would be processed by Java MessageFormat class, quotes
need to be doubled sometimes. Again, some special comment in the file
will
solve the problem. Any other ideas?
