Eeek. IMO "Image Manipulator" is really akward. I'd suggest to use "Image Editor" instead. Unless someone comes up with a better suggestion, I will do that change in the HEAD branch. > Here is a link to a gimp.desktop file with GenericNames in several > languages: > > http://www.yoper.com/ariszlo/devel/gimp.desktop The translations are handled by po files. We don't keep gimp.desktop with translations in CVS. I will let the translators take care of translating the generic name. > In addition to adding GenericName, Comment[ta] was also fixed. > Comment[ta] was badly converted to UTF-8. There's no "ta" translation for GIMP so that's not our problem. The gimp.desktop file as shipped with GIMP is validated using desktop-file-validate so there shouldn't be such problems with our desktop file. If people use other gimp.desktop files than the originally shipped one that's their fault (and they should be kicked badly for doing that). Sven
