Klax: cool. You say you based it on the french translation partly, would it help if update.py would give you, along with the original text of an item, the translations to other languages?

Finished spanish translation! Polished, bigger, better! 8)

z-man: The translation for me is sometimes easier from french to spanish because it is a romanian language and some words are very similar to catalan language that it is my second language. For me inserting english and french if available would be nice ;)

I added the feature to update.py in the b0_2_8 branch; non-option command line arguments are interpreted as additional language files (files where easier than languages) to use as reference. So
./update.py french.txt
will give you the English original and the French translation on the untranslated Spanish items.

Thanks z-man for the explanation.

Sorry about being late translating them (lately I'm a bit too much lazy hehe).
Commited new version of spanish.txt: Tranlated new items and some accents and sentences fixed.

No need to apologize. Translations don't need to be complete or perfect. Heh, even the English is neither :) They should just allow someone with rusty English skills to still find his way around and know what's going on.
Of course, the better they are, umm, the better.
