I used "Eines" because it is shorter than "Eintrag". I'll use "Eintrag"

I agree, but the most OSX-sizes _are_ hardcoded and because I use that
system, I notice this wrong layout.
I've posted that entry, because I think it is a good idea to use icons
there instead of strings in general. I had this idea independently to
the too long strings. These were only the last impulse to post that
idea.
