Yes, the N_(x) macro used for localization that i discard in my questio=
n.

Sorry but, i just having another question, consider this code:

const char *my_strings[] =3D {
    [0] =3D "index0",
    [4] =3D "index4",
    [6] =3D "index6"
};

How many pointer to char that my_string array holds now? is that 3?
where are index [1], [2], [3], and [5] ?
