I have written a tutorial to aid people who want to contribute to the
localization of Puppy Projects by translating English phrases into
Hebrew or Arabic. There is a lack of a good bidirectional text editor,
but I think I have found the solution. It is called Yudit.
I believe it has enough features to do the job. I don't speak Hebrew
or Arabic so I don't know. I do know that it must allow several
languages and two directions of text flow, and Yudit supports this.
I invite feedback.

Possible minor annoyance - I can't double check it now because I'd have to reinstall Puppy to make sure, but the it_IT file in my 5.1 install seems to be encoded as ISO-8859-1, while the other quickpet translation files are UTF-8.

I noticed that because I was getting a weird crossed-box character in place of the accented vowels. I opened the /usr/local/quickpet/locals/it_IT file with Geany, saved it back as UTF-8 (no BOM) and then the accented vowels were rendered correctly. Not sure whether it makes a difference for all users or only the ones that choose to run their apps in UTF-8 as I do, but I thought to report it just in case.


EDIT: I did double check with a fresh install that I had to do for another reason, and I can confirm that it_IT does come encoded as ISO-8859-1.

With the ISO encoding the Italian accented vowels in Quickpet are broken for everybody (whether they check the UTF-8 box on chooselocale or not), and saving the file as UFT-8 fixes the issue for everybody .

Hi, 01micko

Here you have a quick Brazilian Portuguese translation of Quickpet.
I wish there are some more Brazilians here to check my job.
I think I found 2 typing errors in basic English text.
In:

export LOC_WARNINGINSTALL="package will leave you with less than 45 MB \nof pupsave or partition after instaltion \nContinue?"

There is an LA missing in the word "installation"

and in:

export LOC_107="Connection timed out. Please try again later or rest the Timeout in Preferences"

I suppose the rest shoud be reset

I didn't test my translation in Quickpet yet. Taking your suggestion, I am going to rest now.

Cheers,

Renato
