I have a question about this chapter, the debugger section has "les boutons du bouton « Next »," which doesn't quite work in French, but it's because the English original has a similar awkward repetition. Happy to clean it up in French regardless, or wait until the English gets a pass. |

Good catch, Emile. The repetition is in the English ("using the buttons on the "Next" button on the CALLSTACK toolbar"), so the fix belongs there, where every edition gets it. I've opened QuantEcon/lecture-python-programming#642 for it, so please leave line 419 matching the English as it stands. The corrected sentence will reach the French with the next update from the English (the translation manual's Errors in the English page has the details). I've also pushed one commit here that puts back the non-breaking spaces before |

Review of the French translation of Mise en route
Fix
"Le paquet Python de base" didn't read naturally and slightly obscured the meaning; rephrased around "installation."
Before:
Le [paquet Python de base](https://www.python.org/downloads/) est facile à installer mais *n'est pas* ce que vous devriez choisir pour ces cours.After:
[L'installation de base de Python](https://www.python.org/downloads/) est facile à réaliser, mais *ce n'est pas* ce que vous devriez choisir pour ces cours."au lieu du Enter" doesn't actually work grammatically in French ("du" can't take "Enter" like that); added "la touche" to fix it.
Before:
appuyez sur \Shift-Enter` au lieu du `Enter` habituel.`After:
appuyez sur \Shift-Enter` au lieu de la touche `Enter` habituelle.`Agreement error — "lesquels" is masculine but it's referring back to "complétions," which is feminine plural.
Before:
...plusieurs complétions possibles parmi lesquels choisir.After:
...plusieurs complétions possibles parmi lesquelles choisir."fait gagner de la frappe" is a literal calque of the English that doesn't really mean anything in French; rewrote it to say what it actually means.
Before:
...vous fait aussi gagner de la frappe.After:
...vous évite également d'avoir à tout taper."la partie inférieure divisée" is a confusing word-for-word rendering of "the split lower pane." "Panneau inférieur" is the term already used elsewhere in the translation, so this just brings it in line.
Before:
Cliquer en haut à droite de la partie inférieure divisée ferme l'aide en ligne.After:
Cliquer en haut à droite du panneau inférieur ferme l'aide en ligne."Plus d'instructions peuvent être trouvées" is a passive construction straight out of English; French reads more naturally in the active voice here.
Before:
Plus d'instructions peuvent être trouvées sur la [page de la bibliothèque]...After:
Vous trouverez davantage d'instructions sur la [page de la bibliothèque]..."Ceci" is vague where "cette commande" makes it clear what's being referred to.
Before:
Ceci écrit la ligne \print("foobar")` dans un fichier appelé `foo.py` dans le répertoire local.`After:
Cette commande écrit la ligne \print("foobar")` dans un fichier appelé `foo.py` dans le répertoire local.`"courbe d'apprentissage verticale" is a direct translation of "steep learning curve" that just doesn't land in French; "très raide" is the expression people actually use.
Before:
...une courbe d'apprentissage apparemment verticale ainsi que de longues journées...After:
...une courbe d'apprentissage apparemment très raide ainsi que de longues journées...Standardized capitalization for "Unicode" and "HTML," following normal French typographic convention for proper nouns and acronyms.
