| # All this catalog "translates" are quotation characters. |
| # The msgids must be ASCII and therefore cannot contain real quotation |
| # characters, only substitutes like grave accent (0x60), apostrophe (0x27) |
| # and double quote (0x22). These substitutes look strange; see |
| # http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~mgk25/ucs/quotes.html |
| # |
| # This catalog translates grave accent (0x60) and apostrophe (0x27) to |
| # left single quotation mark (U+2018) and right single quotation mark (U+2019). |
| # It also translates pairs of apostrophe (0x27) to |
| # left single quotation mark (U+2018) and right single quotation mark (U+2019) |
| # and pairs of quotation mark (0x22) to |
| # left double quotation mark (U+201C) and right double quotation mark (U+201D). |
| # |
| # When output to an UTF-8 terminal, the quotation characters appear perfectly. |
| # When output to an ISO-8859-1 terminal, the single quotation marks are |
| # transliterated to apostrophes (by iconv in glibc 2.2 or newer) or to |
| # grave/acute accent (by libiconv), and the double quotation marks are |
| # transliterated to 0x22. |
| # When output to an ASCII terminal, the single quotation marks are |
| # transliterated to apostrophes, and the double quotation marks are |
| # transliterated to 0x22. |
| # |
| # This catalog furthermore displays the text between the quotation marks in |
| # bold face, assuming the VT100/XTerm escape sequences. |
