Re: gEDA-user: Translations for gEDA 1.6.1....

[timecop <timecop@xxxxxxxxx>]

Official rule of how things work (on the other OS) is that

1) localized versions which use non-CJK alphabet will have localized
accelerators (ex. _New, Ne_u, etc)
2) CJK localized versions will put the english accelerator in ( )
after the original menu text - ex.　ファイル(_F)

This seems to work and currently installed base of windows users agrees.
Probably not a bad idea to follow that.
