Hi,


Is there a common dictionary of GUI terms and their Persian
equivalents being maintained?

Do you mean an official one, distributed by for example Iranian IT organisation?
I like to recall that one of our friends in this mailing list mentioned such a dictionary for some month ago.
Obviously every translators does not access to that dictionary for the reason that some of us live outside
of the country. I think most of the GUI terms has been picked up from there but not all. As translation of kdelibs lays as a basis for all other packages and it has been translated by two different teams both in some connections with Sherif University there are some inconsistancy exist, like the Refresh or Reload.
Ofcourse, translators including myself can be belamed for in some cases regarding using other terms than what you can find in kdelibs or other packages!


I like the idea if we could have a web page or a small searchable database on the net just for GUI terms.
This could be very useful both for users and other individuals who like get into translations of free software applications.


Regards
Abbas
