Topic: How to have text into brackets not automatically translated?

Questions related to Wordfast Anywhere are best asked on the dedicated mailing list, since it’s attended by the developers themselves (unlike this forum).
In Wordfast Classic, the following setting can be found:
Placeables=Case,CASE,123,{[()]},wo@#rd
You may want to request its implementation in Anywhere, since (I think) it would let you do what you want: insert strings in brackets as is, without translating them. However, if you are using machine translation, it would not prevent them from being translating (when you wrote "automatically translated in French", this suggests you are using MT).
