In the long run, it would be better if we switched to using GNU gettext and its standard .po file format, because there are many tools that make the translators' job much easier when using gettext. Some of these tools will automatically generate suggested translations. Here are just some of the packages available: gtranslator: PO-file editor for the GNOME Desktop Gtranslator is a po file editor which makes translating gettext applications as easy as possible, even for people with no translation experience. It supports the usage of translation memories, syntax highlighting, spell checking, undoing of insertions and deletions and general integration with the GNOME Desktop. For more information, visit <http://gtranslator.sourceforge.net/>. kbabel: PO-file editing suite for KDE This is a suite of programs for editing gettext message files (PO-files). It is designed to help you translate fast and consistently. This suite includes KBabel, CatalogManager and KBabelDict. KBabel is an advanced and easy to use PO-file editor with full navigational and editing capabilities, syntax checking and statistics. CatalogManager is a multi functional catalog manager which allows you to keep track of many PO-files at once. KBabelDict is a dictionary to assist with searching for common translations. This package is part of KDE, and a component of the KDE SDK module. See the 'kde' and 'kdesdk' packages for more information. poedit: cross-platform gettext catalog editor Generator for po to mo. It is built with wxWindows toolkit and can run on Unix or Windows. It aims to provide convenient way of editing gettext catalogs. It features UTF-8 support, fuzzy and untranslated records highlighting, whitespace highlighting, references browser, header editing and can be used to create new catalogs or update existing catalogs from source code with a single click. potool: A program to aid manipulation of gettext po files This package contains the filter program 'potool', as well as a few helper scripts: poedit - helps editing of po files in your favourite editor postats, postats1 - prints statistics of how much of a file is translated -- Joe _______________________________________________ glob2-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/glob2-devel
