Done.

I have updated the Swedish translation and translated all occurences of 
"directory"
as if the original was "folder". The updated translation is available from:
http://www.maths.lth.se/matematiklu/personal/hans/gqview/sv.po-1.3.8.gz

While checking out the new translation I noticed that the 
Exif-information doesn't
appear translated. This applies both to the advanced view and the 
"ordinary" view.
It seems the necessary strings (e.g. "Camera", "Aperture", "multi-segment")
for the ordinary view are translated in the Swedish po-file.
