Description

We should replace occurrences of “Tails OpenPGP Applet” by “OpenPGP Applet”, maybe this will do (untested and probably not enough):

git grep -l 'Tails OpenPGP Applet' | while read file ; do sed -i 's/Tails OpenPGP Applet/OpenPGP Applet/' $file ; done

The command works for most things, I’ll adjust the remaining by hand.

Some thoughts:

-a lot of older resp. non-doc pages were changed, too (e.g. news, a sponsor report, etc.). Shall we change them too? (IMHO we should, as far as I try to keep the pages all consistent)

-as Tails OpenPGP Applet now says OpenPGP Applet some sentences are like “With OpenPGP Applet you can:”. Shall this get changed into “With the OpenPGP Applet you can:”. What do you think? Of course we can keep all the things in the way we had it before.

That’s up to you. I don’t mind having the old name in news and reports
as these are bound to some date in the past.

Yeah… that’s painful with apps that use common nouns as proper nouns.
I would say that writing "With *OpenPGP Applet* you can, with italic
on “OpenPGP Applet” fixes this issue.

I’m not 100% convinced but this is a recurring problem and I think we
should do always the same. Removing the article seems easier to
systematize and using italic should make it clear this is a proper noun.

I changed all occurences, but not all in French, because French is using “… de Tails” often and I don’t want to mess with French translations.

Merged, thanks! I think you well not to fix the French translations. Apparently some languages decide not to translate “OpenPGP Applet” itself, like German, and some others do.
