BTW the latest momanager picks up /usr/lib/gtkdialog/ fine. No need for links to bin.
ok, well

Translating libsturdust with the new momanager does the trick

Hi mavrothal

Now it all seems ok, over time if there are other discrepancies we will see them do.
Thanks for your time and I'm very puzzled to have been the first to translate ppm v2 and find the impossibility of translation in some parts. it is clear that it has never been translated by those who drafted some scripts. Using gettext is valid if it is translated as a test. If it is not translated (at least in their own language) you can not understand the problems. Now ppm is very complete and very useful, thanks again.

Thank you for this new version.
I must soon test this development !

xanad,
Hi, I was wondering, have you looked at pcdripper?

http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=24157

I had a very quick look at 3.9.4, the method of translation is very unusual, I don't understand it.

Maybe we should "normalise" it?

ok, I just downloaded the file, now I look at it ...

I think we should be using james' Xdialog updates. It includes all of amigo's patches and some new ones. Even I fixed the long standing bug of not being able to use a mono font in a textbox in GTK2. (IIRC).

I found the way, but is a long text replacement... after gettext ... and after the test ... after translation...
When I finished I send it.
PS: all translations previously created will be useless.

EDIT:
First part of the job.
Pcdripper attached version 'normalized'. I hope it's all right.
Soon I start with gettext.

Posted: **Sun 15 Nov 2015, 15:24**

Hi Barry.,
I have to solve others problems with gettext.
For now I solved almost everything.

textdomain problems:
from line 1109 to 1137
from line 1264 to 1296
from line 1315 to 1383
from line 1445 to 1513
- same problem

and
from line 2417 to 2435

I try again

pcdripper gettext.
It is a file for me complicated. My solution is this. I added gettext, but are recognized by momanager 73 lines instead of 89. But by manually creating from scratch the .pot everything works. So it is preferable to directly translate the .pot. Other solutions?

BarryK on February 27, 2020 in his blog wrote:Lutz (L18L in the forum) has been running into problems with a German translation of Snap2. He cannot get it to work. It seems that although Snap2 was gettexted, it hasn't actually been tested.

EDIT 3/26/2020: Get the released new version of internationalized snap2 here:
http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewto ... 82#1053782
(End of edit)

I have replaced with eval_gettext, instances of gettext usage that contain variables.

I am unable to test translations, so need someone implementing them to test the attached experimental package with a translation file.

Snap2 appears in EasyOS/Pup but apparently not in woofCE pups, although peebee maintains the english-only version adapted for woofCE (as version 4.26) for Pups.

Please work with me (here or by PM) to correct any remaining translation issues. But I cannot help regarding messages about missing widget components.
Richard

UPDATE 3/1/20: Beta candidate attached, along with the xgettext output generated from the scripts for review only. I cannot test beyond that, so please let me know if anything further needs to be changed or added.

UPDATE 3/7/20: Final beta uploaded. It now includes an internationalized Help component derived from the readme.txt file, and fixes for the widget warning messages, as well as peebee's fix in version 4.26.

UPDATE 3/10/20: New 'final' beta uploaded. Most of the tests of user selections were not internationalized, so failed.

UPDATE 3/17/20: Uploaded beta with further refinements and some operational testing.

UPDATE 3/19/20: Uploaded beta with operation corrections and message simplification.

UPDATE 3/20/20: Uploaded beta with scrolling top section and internationalized desktop file. Note that the scroll bar goes to the end, but page-down, page-up and the mouse wheel work for scrolling.

UPDATE 3/20/20: Uploaded beta with corrected message that did not translate, replacing 20200320 version.

UPDATE 3/25/20: Uploaded release candidate which fixes occasional "broken pipe' messages and contains further internationalization.

UPDATE 3/26/20: Uploaded the final release to the thread, " snap2 rotating snapshot backups for Puppy," in Advanced Topics » Additional Software (PETs, n' stuff) » Utilities:
http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewto ... 82#1053782

Since its messages differ from the release candidate, I am removing the RC.

Hi Richard,

glad you are going to take that bull by the horns

...

Problem is not the translation, it is the code.
Real example: Help button at the main window. (gettext Help)
But there is no other gettext Help in the script
It is an offer without action.

Here ismy offer for you and all English-(only)-developers:
Use a pseudo language to test your code (see image please)
launch momanager create non-English ... in EasyOS or EasyPup
choose Matching TEXTDMAIN: "snap2"
Create (or Edit)

Start with just 1 translation
e.g.

Code: Select all

msgid "Help"
msgstr "xHelpX"

test
next translations
test..........................

But I cannot help regarding messages about missing widgit components.

esmourguit in a PM to me wrote:I send you the french .po and .mo files of snap2 on which you worked.
They seem to work.
Thank you very much for your work.

Thank you for trying my version of snap2 and sending me your translations.

I have now hopefully concluded my updates and have uploaded a candidate for version 4.27 of the snap2 package.
http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewto ... 73#1051473
It contains fixes for the warning messages, the update from version 4.26 by peebee, and a new internationalized Help script, snap2help.

For anyone who has started translating for the previous (20200301) package, I am attaching a difference listing of xgettext outputs, so that your translations can be edited with the minor changes.

As I am inexperienced with using snap2, could someone familiar with using it please try 4.27 and let me know whether there are any remaining problems with it. I may try it myself but that will take some time, and I do not want to delay providing 4.27.
Richard

Hello Rerwin,

First, please note that snap2help is not displayed by clicking on the Help button. Only this message appears extract from snap2 line 1307 :

You have not specified the storage directory for all backups, on the 'BACKUP STORAGE' tab.

snap2help: modification to line 17 which had not been fully gettexted:

Code: Select all

$(gettext 'Hard links are used to copy identical files between successive snapshot backups, resulting in a tremendous savings in backup storage space. Furthermore, during a backup, rsync only transmits 'deltas' (changes in files), and those changes are transmitted compressed.  This results in a great savings in bandwidth.')

and other problem line 61. I modified it as follows (but maybe there is a better way) in order to be able to extract a correct .po file:

Code: Select all

$(eval_gettext 'There is a default backup exclusions file ($HOME/.snap2/$settingsdir/exclude/default), used for both mirror and snapshot backups. If the configuration option \"Add Default Exclusions\" is checked (ADVANCED tab), it will be used in addition to any directory-specific exclusions.')" >> /tmp/box_help

In this same line 61, it seems that $settingsdir does not appear in the text of snap2help, while the default directory created is of course: $HOME/.snap2/defaut.set/exclude/default.
I would be able to provide you the full french translation of snap2help as soon as possible and others modifications in snap2 and snap2engine .mo files.

Regards
JJ M

Thank you, JJ, for your feedback. I have corrected the two message errors you reported.

The 'Help' pop-up led me to discover that almost all tests of user responses were not internationalized, so no actions would be detected. I think I have corrected them all, but cannot yet verify the activities.

I note, however, that the SAVE button does nothing -- there is no code for it. Supposedly, all other options somehow do a "save".

I am trusting that the logic all works in the non-international 4.25 version and that any discrepancies are due to internationalization. I hope.

Get package snap2-4.27-beta-20200310, above.

Small changes in snap2help (attached)

translated
tested
ok

removing just fake .gz is not enough
file must also be executable

Hello to all of you,

I modified snap2help with the modifications given by L18L, and the translation works perfectly. I also gettexted line 145 to internationalize the title of the Help window.
Then I modified line 659 in snap2, and commented lines 1297 to 1302, as indicated also by L18L, and the 'Help' button works perfectly now.

Regards,
JJ M
