As you can see in the ts-file some program (I don't know which it might
have been) added the obsolete type to all strings. While I'm not getting
the correct string from the above script (the translation for Node), it
doesn't work in the real application. I think that is due to the
context-problem and I will look into that later. If I can't find a
solution I'll be back ;-)
