Re: Nicknames for hotkey configs - should be translated?

 

I don't think so.  Typically, only UI strings shown to the user should
be translated.  File names and paths should not be translated.  The user
should be able to change the file name to anything they want in the file
dialog.

Cheers,

Wayne
