Bug Description
If a message from a plug-in contains "%", an exception is raised:
{{{
File "/home/
finalmsg = trans % args
TypeError: not enough arguments for format string
}}}
"%" should be escaped from messages for preventing this exception (replacing "%" with "%%" before using say() works for me.)

If you call .say() with "%" and without args, it should work without escaping the "%" (as there're no args, no replacement should be done).
