 How to localize Manna?SOLVED |
|
Hello Everyone,
This area is new for me, but before I continue with my Manna-Reader and Manna OS I would like to have the reader and the individual books that I made be able to be read in other languages.
I have no idea on how to use gettext so if someone could help me with this it would be appreciated.
the Manna-Reader is here http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=84566
Manna OS is here http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=86106
Thanks

Hello Everyone,
I have been trying to localize Manna Editor. This is what I have got so far
| Code: |
export MAIN_DIALOG='
<window title="'$(gettext "Manna Editor")'" icon-name="Com" resizable="false">
<frame>
<vbox spacing="0">
<menubar>
<menu use-underline="true">
<menuitem stock-id="gtk-new">
<action>launch:ADD_FILE</action>
</menuitem>
<menuitem stock-id="gtk-save">
<action>Save:EDITOR</action>
<action>Save:Saving</action>
<action>refresh:EDITOR</action>
</menuitem>
<menuitem stock-id="gtk-refresh">
<action>refresh:EDITOR</action>
</menuitem>
<menuitem stock-id="gtk-delete">
<action>launch:DEL_FILE</action>
</menuitem>
<menuitem stock-id="gtk-quit">
<action>exit:Quit</action>
</menuitem>
<label>"_File"</label>
</menu>
<menu label="'$(gettext "Edit")'">
<menuitem stock-id="gtk-edit" label="'$(gettext "Send to Abiword")'">
<action>abiword '"$TMPDIR"'/notes &</action>
</menuitem>
</menu>
<menu label="'$(gettext "View")'" tooltip-text="'$(gettext " Change font size ")'">
<menuitem '$FONTSIZE12_ICON' label="12">
<action>echo "12" > '$WORKDIR'/font_size</action>
<action>'$WORKDIR'/Editor &</action>
<action type="exit">quit_now</action>
</menuitem>
<menuitem '$FONTSIZE14_ICON' label="14">
<action>echo "14" > '$WORKDIR'/font_size</action>
<action>'$WORKDIR'/Editor &</action>
<action type="exit">quit_now</action>
</menuitem>
<menuitem '$FONTSIZE16_ICON' label="16">
<action>echo "16" > '$WORKDIR'/font_size</action>
<action>'$WORKDIR'/Editor &</action>
<action type="exit">quit_now</action>
</menuitem>
<menuitem '$FONTSIZE18_ICON' label="18">
<action>echo "18" > '$WORKDIR'/font_size</action>
<action>'$WORKDIR'/Editor &</action>
<action type="exit">quit_now</action>
</menuitem>
</menu>
<menu label="'$(gettext "Help")'" >
<menuitem stock-id="gtk-info" label="'$(gettext "Help")'">
<action>defaultbrowser '$WORKDIR'/editor-docs/MannaEditorHelp.html &</action>
</menuitem>
<menuitem stock-id="gtk-info" label="'$(gettext "About")'">
<action>/tmp/Editor-help &</action>
</menuitem>
</menu>
</menubar>
</vbox> |
I do have the German lang pack installed and the only thing that gets changed is the submenus under File in the menubar.
What else am I missing for the rest of the menu to change?

These are in German because they are coded as gtk stock items
| Code: | | <menuitem stock-id="gtk-new"><action>launch:ADD_FILE</action></menuitem> |
Example "New" and others see:
https://developer.gnome.org/gtk2/2.24/gtk2-Stock-Items.html#GTK-STOCK-NEW:CAPS

You mean the "gettexted" items?
I have copied your script (named manna_editor) to /root/my-applications/bin/ (thus momanager can find it) and edited some lines.
My /root/my-applications-bin/manna_editor: | Code: | #!/bin/sh

Hi L18L,
Thanks now when I do the full script for Manna Editor and with MoManager will others be able to use with their language packs?
My Manna-Reader has a lot of input files how would one do those;
here is all the code for Manna-Reader. I don't want you or any one else to do this, just give me hand to get started.
Thanks

Hi oldyeller
Here is how your does not run:
| Code: | # ./Manna-Reader
cat: /usr/local/Manna/font_size: Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden
./Manna-Reader: line 52: /usr/local/Manna/font_size: Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden
./Manna-Reader: line 59: /usr/local/Manna/gtkrc_size: Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden
cat: /usr/local/Manna/current-book: Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden
./Manna-Reader: line 149: /usr/local/Manna/current-book: Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden
cat: /usr/local/Manna/current-chapter: Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden
cat: /usr/local/Manna/chapter-selection: Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden
** (gtkdialog:3676): ERROR **: gtkdialog: Error in line 994, near token '</vbox>': syntax error
./Manna-Reader: line 1753: 3676 Trace/Breakpoint ausgelöst $GTKDIALOG --center --program=MAIN_DIALOG
# |
Maybe it runs when the files in /usr/local exist?
Continue to use gettext
example:
change
TITLE="Book of Genesis"
to
TITLE="$(gettext 'Book of Genesis')"
and always make sure that the code can run.
That's all for now.

Hi L18L,
Manna Editor is done, now the fun starts on Manna-Reader.
How good is Google Translate?

Usually the first translator will find something that has to be changed in the code...
So feel free to publish (or PM).

I will be doing a few more languages for the Editor before uploading and posting a new pet. Will PM all language maintainers when I am done.
I can only use google translator or (m$ which I really don't want to use)
Unless there is another one out there?
Cheers
