Thank you. I’ve already included those changes in my forked version.

BTW, if you convert the *strings files from UTF-16 to UTF-8 encoding, git will handle these as text and not 
as binary. And it will be easier to manipulate those files in shell scripts with sed, grep, cut, tr and other 
commands. Cocoa itself handles UTF-8 and UTF-16 encoded strings files interchangeable.
