Hi, All,

The following can provoke bad fingerprint message during catkeys linking:

1) Backslash (\)-shadowed symbols in the COMMENT section of B_TRANSLATE_WITH_COMMENT. This is also related to using B_UTF8_ELLIPSIS in comments. This prevents from loading this line at run-time too, so the line will be displayed untranslated; 2) Using raw new-line at the end or in the middle of translated text. Current version of HTA transfers this character without conversion directly into catkeys file and generates fake empty or bad-formed lines.

So, you are warned. ;-)
