Re: [Texmacs-dev] Missing French translation in menus

REMARK: Let me first of all tell that I agree with
Michele that we should stop to "decouper les cheveux
en quatre" about the French translations.
Moreover, if a particular issue has to be discussed,
then I recall that we should do that on address@hidden
This remark holds for all languages.

Oops, I that was a typing error.
In fact, certain keyboards display "Verr Maj".
But both "Verrouillage majuscules" and "Majuscule fixe"
are fine with me.

I had difficulties with translating 'switch'
into other languages too; I guess that we won't find
something fully satisfactory.

Of course; I can't type e acute on this keyboard.

Yes. I can also remove it from the menus.
