Description:

In the file src/main.c, line 1780, there is a Plural-Form in the strings "%d line was/were %s", where %d is the number of line(s) and %s can have value "truncated" or "wrapped". The problem is that both words (truncated and wrapped) may have different spelling in singular and plural forms.  That's my case in Brazilian Portuguese.

Proposal:

I propose to duplicate the Plural-Form string to "%d line was/were truncated" and "%d line was/were wrapped", removing the "%s". This will increase one string for the translator, but one will be able to translated the plural-form correctly.

See attached diff for a patch of this proposal

Also, when/if fix this bug, please update translation file in Translation Project.
