Translations

[roberts]

Curaga has come up with a much better method, function, to support translations.
Working great in Appsaudit.

[rodin.s]

Supported in the rc series since 3.1 rc2:

* Internationalization (setlocale) added to FLTK GUIs.

However the extension will only be updated for stable releases.

I  have downloaded tinycore-3.1 but I can't find setlocale GUI. Can you help me.

[curaga]

There is no GUI for picking a locale per se, you would add support with the getlocale extension and select with a boot param.

[rodin.s]

Thanks. Now I understand. My mistake.

I have made Russian translation and Russian .mo file. But it does not work. It seems like all this interface does not understand utf-8. When I put .mo file where it should be and start some applications - I have strange signs instead of letters.
Looks similar to aterm and Cyrillic symbols which are OK in LXterminal.
Is there any chance for Russian translation to work in TC?

[curaga]

No utf-8 is a limit of fltk, sorry.

[TCP312]

is there  Chinese ?

[Star Brilliant]

I got a problem. Chinese charactors were shown incorrectly in aterm.
Also, I cannot use fcitx in many of the fltk applications.

I think it's goot to offer xfonts-wqy in repo. Why not offer tty-wqy-zenhei as well?

Hello all! I'm a 16 year old boy from belgium that's studying IT management and has recently fell in love with tinycore. I've already been using linux or about 3 years now and I like learning about it and tinkering with it.
But enough about me, what I'd actually like to say is that I'd like to help this great distro and I think I could do tthat by helping translating in dutch (I'm from flanders) since that hasn't been done a lot according to launchpad.
I also hope to learn a lot here!

[curaga]

Please do. You don't need to ask us to do so, registering an account at launchpad is enough - we have set translations to be available to all who want to help.

transaltion page "says" that everything is translated into italian but appsaudit still has some menu items in english:
-missing dependencies reporting
-fetch missing dependencies
-select mirror

scm broser in almost completely untranslated

[curaga]

Yes, I usually sync the translations once per release. Haven't yet done so for 4.4, will do today.

edit: 4.4 template uploaded, it may take a day or two for it to become translatable. base-locale.tcz also updated to latest translations.

[jls]

Appsaudit is now ok, but scm browser no.

[curaga]

Yes, the new template can be translated now. The page shows 17 strings not yet translated to Italian, most are in scmbrowser.
