Re: dealing with plural

[Fòram na Gàidhlig <fios foramnagaidhlig net>]

Looks correct to me, since your language only has 1 plural form
(msgstr[0]). You should be able to delete the line #msgstr[1] "" without
causing problems.

If PoEdit doesn't define the plural forms your your language correctly,
best contact PoEdit's author - he will fix this for future versions if
you let him know about the problem.
