I just try to translate the newly added phrases (rev7068 => rev7174). Could you please tell me what "friendly URL alias slugs" are? The word "slug" has quite a bunch of different meanings, and since I don’t know what happens to these "slugs" in MODx, it’s rather difficult to translate...
Cheers,
Jan

It’s in /core/lexicon/en/setting.inc.php:
$_lang[’setting_friendly_alias_word_delimiter’] = ’FURL Alias Word Delimiter’;
$_lang[’setting_friendly_alias_word_delimiter_desc’] = ’The preferred word delimiter for friendly URL alias slugs.’;
$_lang[’setting_friendly_alias_word_delimiters’] = ’FURL Alias Word Delimiters’;
$_lang[’setting_friendly_alias_word_delimiters_desc’] = ’Characters which represent word delimiters when processing friendly URL alias slugs. These characters will be converted and consolidated to the preferred FURL alias word delimiter.’;

A slug is essentially what friendly URL alias represents in MODx, using the definition of slug from: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slug_(web_publishing)
Does that help any? I was just trying to relate a common concept in modern web publishing to the MODx friendly URL alias. Probably is redundant though on review.
Yes, that was helpful, thank you very much. Now I understand why there are "delimiters", too - it’s so simple, but since I never heard or read the term "slug" (strange enough - I’m a web developer myself, I’m reading quite a lot, in German as well as in English, and of course I know the concept that is described there) I was quite puzzled.
Cheers,
