Ok. That would be great. The translation was done pretty quickly in
one afternoon by one of my friends a month and a half ago.

Yes. I think that maybe this translation should be removed. It is
questionable if error strings written to the terminal should be
translated because if a user posts to a help forumn, the developers
may have no idea what the errors are.

I really need to read all of the strings and change a number of
them. It is something that I never get around to because I try to
occupy my time with coding. In the last day, there was also another
person who pointed out quite a few mistakes.

Yes. This is the reason for these newlines. It would be good to
reformat them to display properly. Be careful to make the tailing and
starting newlines the same as in the untranslated text.
