> The new danish translation is not very good. I've requested access at Crowding to fix it. I have a LOT of previous experience translating apps into danish.

I've added you to the translation project! Many thanks for your interest in improving the Danish translation.

> I would like to request that variables can be localized.

This is unfortunately not planned.

> Why does the / character in filenames get converted to a : character? Is it due to the folder support? I'd really prefer that not to be the case.

Can you provide some details on where you observe this?

I think this section in the documentation explains it, please let me know if it's still unclear.

> Mp3tag provides a variety of possibilities to get tag information from parts of the filename or to rename files based on the information stored in the tag of a file. The base concept behind all converters in Mp3tag is the format string, which describes a pattern or template of a filename. A format string consists of any characters and predefined placeholders or scripting functions. Every placeholder begins with the percent sign %, followed by a tag field name and ends with the percent sign. …

It's possible that you'd expect a feature like this to work differently, but please understand that this is how it's implemented in this app.

It's especially crucial to familiarise yourself with the concepts of the app if you plan to contribute to the localisation.
