#Transifex now supports comments in Apple .strings i18n files. Only /* foo */ style comment in the line preceding the key value pair in the source file is saved as a comment for the key. The example below will explain this in a better way:

[sourcecode]
/Comment for key1/
“key1” = “value 1”;

/* This comment will not be
included in key2*/

/* comment for
key2*/
“key2” = “value 2”;

/* this comment will not be included in key3*/

“key3” = “value 3”;
[/sourcecode]
Well, I’m pretty sure that the above snippet explains which comments from source Apple .strings file are saved by Transifex. You can see the comment for a source string in its “Details” section in Lotte.
