[04:31:05] <Xeon4D> I was wondering if anyone can replicate a bug on alpha
3.
[04:31:29] <Xeon4D> Changing the locale and picking the box to translate
the folders on the locale preflet then open the about this system...
[04:31:56] <Xeon4D> i get this

[04:32:39] <Xeon4D> (1011 mb ram, %inaccesible MiB inaccessible .. yaddah
[04:32:52] <Xeon4D> the variable is translated as well it seems
[...]
[04:33:02] <augiedoggie> yeah, looks like a bad translation
[04:33:14] <augiedoggie> I'm not in Haiku to test it myself
[04:33:28] <Xeon4D> bad translation or bad localization of the about
window?
[04:34:15] <augiedoggie> I'm not too familiar with that stuff
[04:35:10] <Xeon4D> oh okay
[...]

I've found some translated (or misspelled - %ld <-> %Id) variables on HTA
and changed them in strings that have not been approved, yet. Translated
variables that can only be changed by a language manager because they have
already been approved are:
Spanish: %inaccesible -> %inaccessible[[BR]]
Portuguese: %inacessíveis -> %inaccessible[[BR]]
Croatian: %ukupno -> %total, %nepristupačno ->
%inaccessible[[BR]]
Dutch: %ontoegankelijk -> %inaccessible[[BR]]
Confusing the lower-case "l" in %ld with an upper-case "I" won't happen so
often anymore as HTA has used a sans serif lower-case "l" and a serif
upper-case "I" for some time.
