These +strings can accept multiple values that mean essentially the same +thing. + +For example, the string "yes" in English is "s�" in Spanish. However, +some users will type "si" (without the accent). To accomodate both +users, you can translate the string "yes" as "s�|si". You can have +any number of alternate matches seperated by the | character like +"s�|si|seguro". + +The strings that can be handled in this way are of the form "yes|yes", +(or "no|no", etc.) There should also be a comment in the .po file +directing you to this file. |
