But the syntax N_(<string>) means "mark this string for translation but don't actually translate it here". In this case you'd want _("Imported %s") to get it translated in place. The N_() form is used in this kind of context: const char *s = N_("Something stringy"); /* mark it */ ... printf("%s\n", _(s)); /* actually translate it */
