Yes, that's good.

Did I miss one with "X, Y and Z"? Most en_US styleguides prefer
lists of more than two items to have a comma before the final
conjunction, regardless of whether it's "and" or "or". The rule's
less solidly established in en_GB, though, so I often overlook it
myself... and it's far from being a strict rule of English grammar.

I only noticed it because some of these strings have underscore to
indicate a hotkey letter.

Oh, Google tells me it's named that because some trolltech fan
couldn't spell "aesthetic". Fair enough then.

You might get comments from another timezone, but d-l-e's been quiet
