Good to know. Is there any way to distinguish between the "dialog" and 
"non-dialog" ahelp strings in Help?

Thanks for the information. It's not that I'm running out of things to 
translate either way, but the extended tips could be good "easyhacks" 
for new translators. It's still quite a lot of work in total and I 
wouldn't recommend people to start working on them if there was a risk 
of their translations being overwritten in bulk.

I'll keep reporting mistakes as I find them.

Best regards,
Tuomas
