-  Notes: 
-  TWiki will translate the stringto the current user's language only        if it has such string in its translation table for that language.
-  Amperstands (&) followed by one letter (one of a...z, A...Z)        (say,X) in the translatable string will be translated to<span class='twikiAccessKey'>X</span>.        This is used to implement access keys.        If you want to write an actual amperstand that stays just before a letter,        write two consecutive amperstands (&&): they will        be transformed in just one.
-  translatable string starting with underscores (_) are reserved. You        cannot use translatable phrases starting with an underscore.
-  Make sure that the translatable string is constant. Specially, do not        include %VARIABLES%inside the translatable strings        (since they will get expanded before the%MAKETEXT{...}%itself is handled).
