I was able to apply the diff, more or less. There was a slight positioning change after I removed the menu list string, so someone might want to do a quick double check: https://github.com/pure-data/pure-data/blob/703c1f8d5d268ceb74e99d1420906fd1519aca24/po/fr.po

hello,

I'm sorry, i don't have time, so here is only a diff.

Since I made small modification of the existing translation, I copy this mail to the 2 other author of the original translation for verification.

thanks and cheers

* The translation build system has been updated as it wasn't automatically refreshing the translation files. For translators, there should be new strings to add and other to update (see po/README.txt for details). For users, the menu titles should now be translated for those languages which do so.

I'm updating the french translation file, but I've got a problem with the line :

msgid "file edit put find media window help"

if I translate this line, the pg GUI will not start.
That line should be removed as it's been replaced by each menu item as a separate string. The reason why Pd can't start is that the strings in that list are used to call procedures ala pd_start_file, pd_start_edit, etc. Changing them means tcl errors early in the startup and nothing seems to happen. I figured this out the hard way too :)
should I just ignore this line?
Yes. I will check the Tcl to make sure it shouldn't appear in the translations. That might be an artifact to my earlier experiments.
What is the best process to share this file : forking pd on sourforce git, changing the file and doing a push request?
Whichever works best for Miller, really. We've been working successfully by doing small feature Pos via Github as well. Since it's likely a small update, you could generate a patch and send to pd-list as well. I'm finding GitHub easiest for my workflow, but use whatever works for you :)
