Who needs it?
Everyone who uses FatDog64 or lupu5.2.8.6

What is new?

#131026 L18L fit for fatdog64 has gettext in /etc; pupdialog needs declaration as dependency
#131027 L18L fit for lupu-5.2.8.6

In lupu5286 (Lucid Linux) the automatic window width and height do not work. Fix is:

Code: Select all

read ISSUE < /etc/issue #131027
if [ "$ISSUE" = "Lucid  Linux" ];then
 MM2_DLG="<window width-request=\"$((${WINDOW_WIDTH}+132))\"  height-request=\"450\" title=\"Forked Fast MoManager : Puppy files\"    resizable=\"true\" icon-name=\"${WINICON}\" window-position=\"1\">"
else
 MM2_DLG="<window title=\"Forked Fast MoManager : Puppy files\" resizable=\"false\" icon-name=\"${WINICON}\">"
fi

What's new?

Code: Select all

#131028 added animation for translation of Comment in /usr/share/applications/*.desktop 
#131029 support for language=Glade added (-j join existing)
#131104 insert 'export TEXTDOMAIN=' into *.sh.xml.sh (temporary copy of *.sh.xml)
#131110 acknowledge Bert's MM-standalone.pet instead of devx

Details

#131028 added animation for translation of Comment in /usr/share/applications/*.desktop

Fatdog's internationalized control panel uses them as tooltips

#131029 support for language=Glade added (-j join existing)

supporting fatdog's use of internationalisation in gtk server

#131104 insert 'export TEXTDOMAIN=' into *.sh.xml.sh (temporary copy of *.sh.xml)

no manual insertion of "TEXTDOMAIN=..." required

#131110 acknowledge Bert's MM-standalone.pet as alternative to devx

nice idea

edit
after 2 downloads re-uploaded disabling test on devx

May be of interest if you cannot have frugal install, only full install

Thus it might be not for everyone.

New Year - new momanager

Version 20130101
containing just some fixes for bugs detected by Finnish translator zephyr2 who has no frugal install.

That is why I have extended momanager to work with full install, tested in Quirky6.0

EDIT: xgettext, etc do yet NOT work in Quirky6.1

EDIT: works in Quirky if you install gettext-0.18.3.1.tar.bz2 from
http://ftp.nluug.nl/ftp/pub/os/Linux/di ... 2/quirky6/

FFMM is dead
Long live momanager.

Yes, I will put your latest momanager pet into quirky 6.1.1.

Great! Congrats...

Latest momanagers do not work on latest Slacko (5.6.5.1, 5.6.5.2). I use version 20130620 which works.

Fix: remove the geometry

MM1RET="`$GTKDIALOGEXE --program=MM2_DLG `" #140105

Thanks again.

gettext-tools (dev activated) installed , no devx

EDIT: gettext-tools frpm slacko's package manager

Hi L18L -and happy NY!-,

Are you talking about these gettext-tools?

We're still in festive mood here...a real hiatus, unlike Barry's

Thanks!

I was talking about gettext-tools in slacko's package manager.
Don't know whether it is the same or not.

Bon appétit

Great work, L18L.

Thanks to Barry, you, Bert and vicmz I was able to release the first pt_PT translation for Puppy. (see why).

I can't express my gratitude...

I was using momanager in Quirky tahr , it worked well however I realized
that the .desktop file is not appropriate for language packs.
It requires translations of the name so that non-English speakers
can understand the function of program.
Barry Kauler needs to be notified of this problem.

Code: Select all

[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Name=MoManager create non-English Puppy
Name[fr]=MoManager - pour traduire
Name[de]=MoManager - Übersetzung kontrollieren
Icon=chooselocale.xpm
Comment=MoManager create non-English translations
Exec=momanager
Terminal=false
Type=Application
Categories=X-Utility-development
GenericName=MoManager

Hello guys,
I just installed Slacko with a full install, then downloaded the lang_pack_fr and loaded it, but nothing happened.
I tried launching Momanager from the console and it complains that PUPMODE = 3 (full install) thus aborting.

Maybe the correct way was to install it when I ran it the first time, before doing the full install? Is there a way to do it now? (I just spent the all day yesterday to set it up!! ^^)

What did you expect to happen after restarting x server?

Does your /usr/sbin/momanager contain this line:

Code: Select all

#131219 enable quirky6.0: no check on pupmode

?

Posted: **Sat 22 Feb 2014, 14:06**

don570,
my translation which is used in langpack_de is

MoManager bringt Puppy deutsch bei

and this means that
MoManager teaches Puppy German

I cannot see any problem with this.

Posted: **Sat 22 Feb 2014, 20:21**

The version that Barry Kauler uses (in Woof) has a desktop that is pure
English. So he should be warned.

The people who make language packs have made changes to their
desktop files obviously.

It's OK to have a translated .desktop file to let users know what's about, maybe it's just not in Barry Kauler's plans. When he said Momanager is English-only, he was serious. Why would a translator need translations? A Puppy translator must have an excellent knowledge of English and how Puppy Linux works.

Posted: **Sat 22 Feb 2014, 22:55**

Slacko 5.6.5.6 has an old version of Momanager. I can't create or update translation files, I can't run newer versions of Momanager either. It says a library is missing, when I install that library it says I need libraries.
