+# this script tries to find all "bad" code like
+# (number > 1 ? tr ("tracks") : tr("track"))
+# that is, all manual plural diversifications
+# you should replace them by:
+# tr("processed %n track(s)", "", number)
+# the "" is a translator comment. you may write what you want
+#
+# you have to create appropriate translations for this (even for
+# english!). linguist will ask you for the singular, plural,
+# and in some language even paucal form then.
+#
+# this script is not perfect. it misses some "bad" things, and
+# finds some "good" things.
