Hello,

I was translating some strings in klettres and I noticed these sentences:

"Default is 2 tens of seconds."
"Set the timer (in tens of seconds)"
"Default is 4 tens of seconds..."

I'm not a native english speaker, but I feel these sentences strange, as for
me "2 tens of seconds" will be 20 seconds, which I judge too long.

So I wonder if these are typos and have to be "tenths of seconds" instead.

Anybody knows?

Orestes.
