String change for Orca



We have made a string change to Orca in response to a bug filed from a translator: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=548380.

The change is to allow for different ordering of the words in an utterance, and it accomplishes this using special formating of the string. The old way was this:

#. Translators: Orca will tell you how many characters
#. are repeated on a line of text.  For example: "22
#. space characters".  The %d is the number and the %s
#. is the spoken word for the character.
#.
#: ../src/orca/default.py:6289
#, python-format
msgid "%d %s character"
msgid_plural "%d %s characters"

The new way is this:

#. Translators: Orca will tell you how many characters
#. are repeated on a line of text.  For example: "22
#. space characters".  The %d is the number and the %s
#. is the spoken word for the character.
#.
#: ../src/orca/default.py:6290
#, python-format
msgid "%(count)d %(repeatChar)s character"
msgid_plural "%(count)d %(repeatChar)s characters"

Thanks!
