Translating monotone to Italian I'm noticing quite a few redundant or
similar strings in monotone, e.g.:
"directory to delete '%s' does not exist"
"directory to delete, '%s', does not exist"

Also, strings are quoted in various ways: often '%s', also often %s
without quotes, sometimes [%s].

Also, some strings end with a newline or a space: I don't think they
should be "inside" the localizable part, but rather should be appended
"after"..? (but maybe not, it's a matter of personal taste, here)

In the Italian translation I'm trying to be more "uniform" in the
style, e.g. translating in the same way the two "directory to delete"
sentences, always quoting in the same way (ā€˜%sā€™) and so on... but I
think that tidying it up a bit could be a nice target for 1.0 0=)
(and after I defend my thesis I hope to have some more time to help)
