Comment (by jscipione):
Replying to [comment:10 humdinger]:
> I have corrected the German comment parts (see the _4_updated.diff),
though it might be more helpful for the translators to just give the
variable, e.g. "%toDoAction". Then they can use the browser's find
function to see where it is used.[[BR]]
I'll add the variable name to the comment for translators since it is
helpful.
> Also, the generated en.catkeys don't seem to like the linebreaks in the
comments. Those are shown as:[[BR]]
> {{{"As in 'if you rename this folder...' (en) \t\t\t\t'Wird dieser
Ordner umbenannt...' (de)"}}}[[BR]]
> If HTA can deal with "\n" try to use that instead...
I only put line breaks in so that the source would not violate the 80-char
line limit coding style rule. I think I can split the string up across
lines without inserting extra tabs into HTA.

alert text telling the user to "hold down the Shift key and click
"%toConfirmAction". Maybe the code-wise capitalization can be removed
completely and the to be translated string is capitalized directly.
I'll add .Capitalize().String() to the all instances of %toConfirmAction
because button labels are mixed-case by convention no matter what your
language normally works right?
