I used gnome translator. I could use a text editor like vim but I want
my girlfriend involved who could only use GUI tools and who knows more
about financial than I do. My wish is the GUI translator work as good as
a text editor (vim), because not only in gnucash, all domain experts
might not be technical user at all. Okay, I'll check what version the
gtranslator is and report a separate bug about it. I also very much
welcome a recommendation of any working GUI tool for this task.
