Is it necessary to have the installer guide msgids in po files one huge line? It would seem to me they could be indented to make them more readable. I mean, text like this is pretty bad for reading: msgid "" "The benefit you gain depends on a type of a MD device you are creating. " "Currently supported are: <variablelist> <varlistentry> <term>RAID0</" "term><listitem><para> Is mainly aimed at performance. RAID0 splits all " "incoming data into <firstterm>stripes</firstterm> and distributes them " "equally over each disk in the array. This can increase the speed of read/" "write operations, but when one of the disks fails, you will loose " "<emphasis>everything</emphasis> (part of the information is still on the " "healthy disk(s), the other part <emphasis>was</emphasis> on the failed " "disk). </para><para> The typical use for RAID0 is a partition for video " "editing. </para></listitem> </varlistentry> <varlistentry> <term>RAID1</" "term><listitem><para> Is suitable for setups where reliability is the first " "concern. It consists of several (usually two) equally sized partitions where " "every partition contains exactly the same data. This essentially means three " "things. First, if one of your disks fails, you still have the data mirrored " "on the remaining disks. Second, you can use only a fraction of the available " "capacity (more precisely, it is the size of the smallest partition in the " "RAID). Third, file reads are load balanced among the disks, which can " "improve performance on a server, such as a file server, that tends to be " ... I did not find a readymade program for indenting xml, but I could write some python code to make the above indented sensibly. I was planning setting a max line length and starting a new line for tags like <listitem>, <para>, <varlistentry> etc. -- Tapio Lehtonen tapio.lehtonen@iki.fi http://www.iki.fi/tapio.lehtonen
