In The Format of PO Files I see
"The general structure of a PO file should be well understood by the
translator. When using PO mode, very little has to be known about the
format details, as PO mode takes care of them for her."
Who's this 'her'?
Are you saying all users of gettext are women? I mean you've actually
gone out of your way to exclude men here.
You could have used the singular 'they' like anyone else, but you
actually _went out of your way_ to find a way of saying it that was
exclusive!
Why?
Also, the text is littered with such things such as
`\n'
Why on earth are you quoting using the grave accent on one side, and the
apostophe on the other?
