Hi,

The tips.txt is processed by gettext but there are some side effects.  
i.e. the following string in tips.txt:

_("The "f" key is the shortcut for Fine Tune button.")

As the double-quote for the "f" are not escaped, the string is splitted  
in hugin.pot:

#: src/hugin/xrc/data/tips.txt:17
msgid "The "
msgstr ""

#: src/hugin/xrc/data/tips.txt:17
msgid " key is the shortcut for Fine Tune button."
msgstr ""


The same occurs with others having quoted letters/expressions :
#: src/hugin/xrc/data/tips.txt:18
msgid "Pressing "
msgstr ""

#: src/hugin/xrc/data/tips.txt:18
msgid " will remove the currently selected control point."
...

So the tips are all in a mess...
