Subject: [PATCH 06/11] setarch: make the usage synopsis comprehensible for translators
Date: Mon, 29 Dec 2014 11:17:01 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1419848226-2533-5-git-send-email-bensberg@justemail.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1419848226-2533-1-git-send-email-bensberg@justemail.net>
Use two separate strings for the two different forms of setarch,
instead of filling in an untranslated word into a single string.
Also use the standard angular brackets for nonliteral arguments.
