moz2po will also match a note to the entity or key that follows it. In my experience the notes are mostly badly formatted or out of date to do proper matching.

So yip we’ll choke on the example @Axel gave. But a translator looking at ‘tender’ is most likely going to miss that note and any notes that apply to the whole file.

That does pose a problem for notes like

# Localization Note (foo, bar, tender): This is just a test
foo: one string
bar: another
tender: wow, yet another string.

Right?

In Narro I assume that a localization note regardless of the way it is formatted and what it contains refers to the next entity. Which is how programmers usually work when commenting code.

Well, isn't already documented how to write localization notes? The other thing is what developers are actually doing...

Worse still, that comment is out of date, because it’s now Ctrl+Shift+U that’s reserved.
