It is just fine for Romanian too.. "%uth copy of %s" may be translated
as "a %-a copie %s" and "%uth link to %s" as "a %u-a legătură către
%s”. Thanks for all the care. And also for the wonderful Terminal which
I think I'll translate very soon now (I keep telling me this for some
months now). Can't wait for Thunar, I'm sure it will be great.
