+#messages_de.properties
+hell=Hallo
+ok=OK

+          The Translation check will find the typo in the german hello

+          Rationale: A main() method is often used for debug

+          to remove the method, which changes the API and increases the
+          size of the resulting class/jar file. With the exception of
+          the real program entry points, all main() methods should be
+          removed/commented out of the sources.

+          Check that method/constructor/catch block parameters are

+          WARNING: This is a very powerful and flexible check, but, at the

+          trees. Thus we recomend using other checks when they provide the
+          desired funcionality. All in all, this check just works on the level
+          of an abstract tree and knows nothing about language structures.

+        <p>
+          The check to ensure that requires that comments be the only thing on
+          a line.  For the case of // comments that means that the only thing
+          that should precede it is whitespace.  It doesn't check comments if
+          they do not end line, i.e. it accept the following:
+          <tt>Thread.sleep( 10 &lt;some comment here&gt; );</tt> Format
+          property is intended to deal with the &quot;} // while&quot; example.
+        </p>
+        <p>
+          Rationale: Steve McConnel in &quot;Code Complete&quot; suggests that
+          endline comments are a bad practice. An end line comment would be
+          one that is on the same line as actual code. For example:
+        </p>
+        <div class="source"><pre>
+a = b + c;      // Some insightful comment
+d = e / f;        // Another comment for this line
+        </pre></div>
+        <p>
+          Quoting &quot;Code Complete&quot; for the justfication:
+        </p>
+        <ul>
+          <li> &quot;The comments have to be aligned so that they do not
+          interfere with the visual structure of the code. If you don't align
+          them neatly, they'll make your listing look like it's been through a
+          washing machine.&quot;
+          </li>
+          <li> &quot;Endline comments tend to be hard to format...It takes
+          time to align them. Such time is not spent learning more about the
+          code; it's dedicated solely to the tedious task of pressing the
+          spacebar or tab key.&quot;
+          </li>
+          <li> &quot;Endline comments are also hard to maintain. If the code
+          on any line containing an endline comment grows, it bumps the
+          comment farther out, and all the other endline comments will have to
+          bumped out to match. Styles that are hard to maintain aren't
+          maintained....&quot;
+          </li>
+          <li> &quot;Endline comments also tend to be cryptic. The right side
+          of the line doesn't offer much room and the desire to keep the
+          comment on one line means the comment must be short.  Work then goes
+          into making the line as short as possible instead of as clear as
+          possible. The comment usually ends up as cryptic as
+          possible....&quot;
+          </li>
+          <li> &quot;A systemic problem with endline comments is that it's
+          hard to write a meaningful comment for one line of code. Most
+          endline comments just repeat the line of code, which hurts more than
+          it helps.&quot;
+          </li>
+        </ul>
+        <p>
+          His comments on being hard to maintain when the size of the line
+          changes are even more important in the age of automated
+          refactorings.

+          otherwise it will think they are special instruction characters.
+        </p>
+        <p>
+          And to make sure it appears only once:

+          An example of how to configure the check to find case-insensitive

+        <p>
+          <b>Note:</b> The (?i) at the beginning of the regular expression

+          There is also a feature to limit the number of errors reported.

+          The default limit setting is 100, but this can be change as shown in
