Lots of work today. Let's go:
a) Remade the Configure options help (Spanish) and fix some of the messages in the dialog. When I translated them for the first time I didn´t realize their real use and now I tried some more understandable stuff. (Patch included; you may get some rejections when applying the patch because of the changes from yesterday).
b) May we change the Options Menu help and move the Layout entry to match it's position in the real menu? The same for the Layout Options node.
c) About gettext. I suppose it's because of the version of gettext in my machine. The new .po got rid of the intermediate comments (I'm not sure if I like this behavior) so when I update.pl at home I get this stuff back and I get huge diffs.
d) HTML mail: It's my fault. I try to unselect the HTML (default)option but sometimes I forget it. I'll try not to.
e) I read something about spaces in translated messages. There are many leading and trailing spaces in my translations which are used just to get the proper alignment in the dialog. Now that we are sharing the same callback function these spaces (as before and after the title) may be trimmed out from .po files. The sooner the better, and some sed may be very useful to help translators. We may, anyway, get to some conflicts because the same English string can have different translations in different contexts, and we were abusing the spaces in a tricky way to distinguish them.
That's all, I think.
