Hi,
I have a question regarding localizable strings: what does "trace" mean in the following two strings (the first one from src/object-ui.cpp, the second from src/sp-image.cpp):
#ifdef ENABLE_AUTOTRACE /* Autotrace dialog */ w = gtk_menu_item_new_with_mnemonic (_("_Trace")); // <--- STRING1 gtk_object_set_data (GTK_OBJECT (w), "desktop", desktop); gtk_signal_connect (GTK_OBJECT (w), "activate", GTK_SIGNAL_FUNC (sp_image_autotrace), item); gtk_widget_show (w); gtk_menu_append (GTK_MENU (m), w); #endif /* Def: ENABLE_AUTOTRACE */
static void autotrace_dialog (SPImage * img) { gchar *title = _("Trace"); // <--- STRING2
GtkWidget *trace_dialog; GtkWidget * header_area; GtkWidget * header_sep; at_bitmap_type * bitmap;

It's the verb form of "trace":
Trace, v. t. imp. 1. To mark out; to draw or delineate with marks; especially, to copy, as a drawing or engraving, by following the lines and marking them on a sheet superimposed, through which they appear; as, to trace a figure or an outline; a traced drawing.

So, in our case, it means "to vectorize" (like in "Potrace")?
