This would save me so much trouble while translating.
It would be great to have automatic quotes and dashes substitutions, instead of
always having plain dashes and quotes. I believe ktextaddons have this already
implemented. It would be even better if KXMLGUI had this built-in like macOS,
but Lokalize having it would suffice for now.
For instance:
- "%1" should auto-substitute to “%1” (or locale-specific other qutoes)
- It's should auto-substitute to It’s
- I am not sure how ktextaddons does this but for instance, having -- to en
dash, and --- to em dash would be splendid.
HIG suggests using these fancy characters, and having this built-into Lokalize
would help a lot for sanitising the strings with these characters.
