I have slightly modified the above one to 

Išvykti - (&x)

As for Lithuanian (and Latvian, but maybe not Estonian),  a keyboard setup 
change (which on my PC is a "windows" key that is unused for "normal" Linux is 
the hot key for the swap). In the translation to Lithuanian, I prefer to keep 
to the same hot key symbol as in the English original.  BTW, the above example 
is a particularly hard example.

Thanks for a nice comment - sort of a "stamp of approval".  I would opt for 
the Wiki page, where we could continue refining things as time permits.  

I would be happy to start a page, if somebody points me to the right 
direction.  I am so "green" in this area that I have not fathomed where the 
wiki is and a suitable location for a new "translations" page. 

BTW, some time ago I did coordinate the (mostly dormant) wiki page at Canberra 
PCUG for a few years:
(http://www.pcug.org.au/oss/wiki/pmwiki.php?n=OpenSource.TheAdmin), 
until I claimed an "E&xit" on account of senility.  Actually, it mainly  
required too much stirring to solicit any contributions.

Of course, Philippe is more knowledgeable than I and He would be a better 
person to do it.

OldAl.
