Description André Klapper 2009-02-27 16:05:06 UTC 
./tr.po:msgid "Application style (traditional, direct, compose or fullscreen)"
./tr.po-msgstr "Uygulama biçemi (geleneksel, doğrudan, karışık ya da tam ekran)"



Being a user, you MUST use the ENGLISH value if you want to use the parameter. It is IMPOSSIBLE for users to GUESS the english values if you translate the values ONLY to your language.

Proposal: Put your translation in brakets after the english value.
Example: "  "english_value" (translation_of_english_value)  "

I have added a translator comment for future reference, see bug 551137 for the complete story.

To reproduce:
1. Start a terminal
2. Run "dasher --help"
3. Read description for "-a"
4. Run "dasher --appstyle=" plus one of the four translated options
5. Fail: Application style is not supported
