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: Select all

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: Select all

    <menuitem stock-id="gtk-new"><action>launch:ADD_FILE</action></menuitem>
Example "New" and others see:
https://developer.gnome.org/gtk2/2.24/g ... K-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: Select all

#!/bin/sh
#130617 i18n started

export TEXTDOMAIN=manna_editor
export OUTPUT_CHARSET=UTF-8

export MAIN_DIALOG='
<window title="'$(gettext "Manna Editor")'" icon-name="Com" resizable="false">
<frame>
 <vbox spacing="0">
  <menubar>
  
   <menu use-underline="true" label="'$(gettext "_File")'">
    <menuitem stock-id="gtk-new"><action>launch:ADD_FILE</action></menuitem>
    <menuitem stock-id="gtk-save"><action>Save:EDITOR</action>
                                  <action>Save:Saving</action>
                                  <action>refresh:EDITOR</action>
    </menuitem>
    <menuitem stock-id="gtk-refresh"><action>refresh:EDITOR</action></menuitem>
    <menuitem stock-id="gtk-delete"><action>launch:DEL_FILE</action></menuitem>
    <menuitem stock-id="gtk-quit"><action>exit:Quit</action></menuitem>
   </menu>
   <menu use-underline="true" label="'$(gettext "_Edit")'">
    <menuitem stock-id="gtk-edit" label="'$(gettext "Send to Abiword")'"><action>abiword '"$TMPDIR"'/notes &</action></menuitem>
   </menu>

   <menu use-underline="true" label="'$(gettext "_View")'" tooltip-text="'$(gettext " Change font size ")'">

</window>'
MM1RET="`gtkdialog --program=MAIN_DIALOG`"
Hope that helps :D

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: Select all

# ./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) :lol: :lol:

Unless there is another one out there?
