Question for translators on environment vars

[François Beausoleil <fb...@ftml.net>]

Hi,

The l10f-fr group is wondering...  What about REPOS_PATH and REPOS, 
PROPVAL and PROPNAME ?

Is there any standard in effect ?  Should these be translated, or left 
as-is ?

Thanks,
François

Those are not environment variables.  Where those words appear in the on-line 
help, they are just descriptive place-holders for command-line parameters. 
Those words should only appear within the help text, and not, for instance, in 
the output from commands other than "help".  So they should be translated - for 
example:

"svn propdel PROPNAME     -- delete the property PROPNAME"

"svn propdel NOM_DE_PROP  -- effacer la propriété nominé NOM_DE_PROP"
