Hi Pascal,

1) What is the best approach to create the language directories ? I 
used the ISO name conventions for this, Fritz / Thomas if you want it 
a different way please let me know.

I think this is ok. But the file names are not realy important.
To select a language, you'll have to rename or copy the language file of 
your choice to language/assp.lng

2) What needs to be translated exactly ? I believe the msg0000xx= are 
the identifiers and need to be exactly the same for all translations?

Yes - and it is not important where they are in the language file - but 
the identifier hast to be right!

msgSNNNNE

E - 0 = short description ; 1 = full description
NNNN - entry number
S - section where used: 0 - default Config  ;  1 - Plugin Config

3) What about HTML entities, do we need them to tag / highlight the 
same keywords ?

There is normaly nothing to do with LINKS or HTML entities - do it the 
same way like in the exported file. You can try it, using the exported 
file   default_en_msg_VERSION_MODVERSION.txt    as language file 
(assp.lng) - the GUI is OK. This file is created by ASSP on every start - 
so it is easy to compare different versions.
There is one thing to do after the translation. To have some system 
specific text in the config definition, there are at some places 
predefined variables used - for example in 'DBdriver':

The exported file contains the list of available DB-drivers of the system 
where it was created - the code uses the variable $DBdrivers to write the 
currently detected list of drivers in to the GUI.
To correct this - just substitute the written list with the variable name 
$DBdrivers (like in the code)!
Be carefull editing LINKS (href) ! It would help to have some HTML 
knowledge. But there are many examples inside the code or the exported 
file, how to highlight, bold, color ..... specific text parts!

It is possible to write comments in to the language file (a comment line 
starts with # or ;)

Thomas

Re: [Assp-test] help wanted!






All,

I just created a cvs repository @ sourceforge for the languages (
http://assp.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/assp/languages 
).
I think this will be the best approach to let more people contribute 
to the languages.

I have a few questions though:

1) What is the best approach to create the language directories ? I 
used the ISO name conventions for this, Fritz / Thomas if you want it 
a different way please let me know.
2) What needs to be translated exactly ? I believe the msg0000xx= are 
the identifiers and need to be exactly the same for all translations?
3) What about HTML entities, do we need them to tag / highlight the 
same keywords ?

Grtz!
