[GRASS translations] Translation problem with computing jargon

Hi ALL,

I am struggling (sp?) with some specific computing terms, eg.: int,
float, double.

I do not know *if* and *how* I translate those.
in pt_BR, if I am to translate those words and convey the whole
meaning, they end up like this:
integer == inteiro
float == número de ponto flutuante
double  == número flutuante de dupla precisão

any help on this will be highly appreciated. Examples from fr, it and
es will help a lot.
Also, I have to ask which literals are to be seen by users? all of
grassmods*.po? all of grasslibs*.po? both files?

thanks

It's maybe worth checking what the Wikipedia community does.
