This is r34761.
As discussed in [//www.freelists.org/post/haiku-development/Checking-
consistency-of-used-strings "Checking consistency of used strings"] on
the mailing list, here are the patches for using sentence case (i.e.
natural English) in Haiku's GUI.
I broke it down into several smaller diffs:
case-add-ons.diff - for add-ons[[BR]]
case-apps.diff - for all applications (save debuganalyzer)[[BR]]
case-audio-drivers.diff - for audio drivers that appear to publish strings
used in the GUI[[BR]]
case-print-drivers.diff - for print drivers that appear to publish strings
used in the GUI[[BR]]
case-debuganalyzer.diff - since I couldn't compile that one, I had to do
it "blind". Maybe Ingo can look over it...[[BR]]
case-preferences.diff - for all preferences[[BR]]
case-server+kits.diff - for servers and kits (save Tracker)[[BR]]
case-tracker.diff - for Tracker[[BR]]
case-misc.diff - the rest
Especially the more low level stuff like drivers and servers/kits should
be checked before committing. I tried my best not to break anything and
only change strings used in the GUI, but...[[BR]]
Along the way I also corrected what little mistakes I encountered, like
changing "Ok" to "OK" or improving text slightly here and there. Nothing
major.
For every file I touched, I updated the header information by either
extending the year to 2009 or adding "Copyright 2009, Haiku, Inc. All
rights reserved." where possible. The latter, I did also for things under
Be's sample code and OpenTracker license. I hope that's OK, otherwise I
can revise the patches.
Finally, attached is a list of all touched files: case-file-list.txt
