Another problems: dialog windows are optimized for English phrases, sometimes without any additional space, and even sometimes space is not enough for English. Localized phrases sometimes longer, but sometimes shorter. It would be a good idea >to reoptimize it. May be, I'll do it.

I may have a fix for this already.. I will do some test first however. I was working on fixing the spacing anyway.

Subj. Localized (and, of course, russified) a bit more things: codetools and compiler options dialogs, some window captions, view form/unit dialog. Made a simple script for all existing .po (except default English .po) to .mo compile.

Thx. Applied.

The resourcestrings are almost always used only once, and they stand for their text. So, I think, their names can be long. You don't need to abbreviate them. And for short phrases you can add pre-/postfixes as you did for
