How can we insert a " into a string (I don't have a good example where
it's needed, but it could happen some day)? With a \ Escape?

"Hello \"World\""

An alternative (but not a better one, I think) is to use the whole
line after the "???: " as the siring:

new: Laddar in...

maybe with trimming spaces (but then, we cannot have a word like
" Hello World ").

PS: I find the .lang format you proposed ok.

Bye, Uwe.
