That is not true, Sam, language-dependent strings are intermingled in
HTML-files. This is a very big difference compared to programs that use
gettext for internationalization. When a new version of sqwebmail comes
out, the translation process starts almost from zero again, because I
need to copy and paste the old strings from the old HTML-templates to
the new HTML-templates. That is a lot of work, I know it, because I have
just done it. I, as a user, prefer gettext.
