Don't touch these files. They are 1) outdated 2) hard to localize. We
should move to proper po files for help too.

There is a bug about this. Currently, AbiWord does not support this, so
translating them now is not really useful.

We can't regenerate the files (does anybody remember where they got from
in the first place?).

Are the "..." in the english strings as well? Afaic, AbiWord at runtime
adds the "..."'s. If so, then no ...'s should be in the translation
file!
