Gettexed some scripts. Maybe some more tests of these scripts needed. I don't have pppoe and did only partial test of ptorrent.
Also xgettext in m08 doesn't work. I use devx.sfs of original Wary.

Thanks for multilingual wary.

I have a rather sheepish question. How do I activate the IME while I'm in en_AU.UTF-8 locale?

You see - I'm thinking to learn a language that requires IME (scim, or equivalent), lets say Chinese (or Japanese for that matter - for the sake of discussion this is the same). Now I can't read any Chinese or Japanese yet, and if I change the locale to ja_JA I'm doomed because all the menu will change to Japanese (I won't be able to switch it back to English, I think). I'd prefer to stay in en_AU, for example, but I'd like the ability to enter Chinese or Japanese using the IME.

Is this possible? I know you build multilingual wary for one who already know the language - but I thought it would be useful for someone who is trying to learn another language too.

cheers!

I have never got success with the SNS.
Recently tested the ndswrapper with the SNS. Found the SNS does not remove the previous module which fails. Therefore, the PC freezed.

I moved SNS from the usual place. You can run the SNS from the special menu on the connectwizard if you want to use.

How to remix the multilingual Wary for your country?
Basically, install your lang_pack and remaster.

Some note on the files under /etc /root and /usr/share/doc.

/etc/profile ... LANG
/etc/keymap ... keyboard layout
/etc/localtime ... link to the timezone info
/etc/xdg/templates/_root_.jwmrc ... part of menu
/root/.jwmrc ... menu
/root/.jwmrc-tray ... part of menu
/root/Choices/ROX-Filer/PuppyPin ... desktop icons
/root/.jwm/jwm_locale ... keeps current menu language
/root/.packages/woof-installed-package ... should keep the installed lang_pack record
/root/Startup/fullstart ... to be excutable
/usr/share/doc/welcome1stboot ... to be reset excutable bits
/usr/share/doc/home.htm ... shall be copied from /usr/share/doc/help/LANGUAGE_CODE/home.htm

Zigbert has just localised 'pschedule' which would be useful
to include for a distribution like Wary Multilingual.

I've localised mtpaintsnapshot.sh for German French and Spanish.

I noticed that Fluppy 13 by Jemimah uses the application 'Xarchiver'
which is localised.
Having all these localised programs would be a nice feature.

I localized a simple egg timer project as well.

Testing LIveCD and all functions tested seem fine. Goes to desktop and discovers LAN card and sound cards without issues. Really like the fact that it goes to desktop setup screen and my LIveCD has GRUB4DOS at boot.

I have a question though: Barry's WARY has

I have updated po-files in /usr/share/doc/nls and added ru-line to two .desktop files.
xgettext wasn't working because I used old save-file with new installation. With new save-file everything works.
