[ic] [interchange-i18n] Swedish translation of foundation (fwd)

[Henrik Holmboe <suppressed>]

[Im still not subscribed to interchange-i18n, though I am subscribed
to interchange-users.]

Im forwarding this to the users ml to get some feedback. Seems like
the i18n-list is mostly inactive, apart from some spam now and
then. :) It also seems that the email for Swedish locale maintainer
(according to dist/lib/UI/locales/README), suppressed,
is inactive.

What Im most curious about is how other translators manage to keep
their translation current. To my knowledge there is no "diff-tool"
that handles the data-format thats used in locale.txt (columns)
gracefully. If you have advise, please share them. My main platform is
Linux, using Emacs as the editor but can adapt if there are other
tools that are better suited.

Hello,

I have a translation of the foundation-store to Swedish that I would
like to have merged in CVS. I did the translation late last year so it
might need some work to merge cleanly.

Some of the files have changed since then, for example I had a patch
to LEFTRIGHT_TOP which is not applicable anymore. But the translation
is done in locale.txt which should remain the same format and
text-strings.

When doing the translation in locale.txt I removed all columns except
en_US and added sv_SE. Now I dont know of an easy way to merge them
back in. Do you have a tool for that? How do we proceed? Hopefully you
have some magic tool to merge products.txt back with HEAD, otherwise
you could give me some hints on how to easiest provide a merged
products.txt to you.

(It would be so much easier if the strings were in a per-line order,
instead of column, just like sv_SE.cfg for the admin UI.)

The translation can be viewed at:
