Hi All, Serendipity Library Update 20020930 is now available at http://www.oenolog.com/ftp/serendipity_downloader.htm
This is the first version to include a German translation of Library messages & prompts, and it also adds two new capabilities: * SDB Utilities' File menu now includes a "Convert Text File" menuItem which saves a copy of a text file with line endings appropriate for a specified platform. Why would one need this when the MC engine automatically handles translation? I use it for Read Me & license text files that ship with my Rev files but are not opened by the MC engine. * An "Edit Fields" menuItem has been added to SDB database stacks' Edit Menu. This allows the user to retrieve and edit individual fields of the current record by field number. I would like to mark the introduction of German language capabilities with overdue thanks to all testers and translators. They are acknowledged in the Read Me file; but for those who do not go there: Thanks to: * Sannyasin Sivakatirswami and Ken Ray for initial design critiques and tips on cross-platform scripting. * Sjoerd Op 't Land, whose sound translation made the audio feedback mechanism possible. * Bj�rnke von Gierke, whose suggestions led to an adjustable audio feedback and improvements in the Library Translation screen. * Jose L. Rodriguez Illera, whose critique reminded me not to lock out MetaCard developers with Revolution-specific syntax and who created Mensajes en espa�ol.txt. * Terry Vogelaar, who pointed out the need for ASCII-ANSI conversion of high-order characters and created Nederlandse Berichten.txt. * Yves Copp�, who created Alertes en Fran�ais.txt. * Klaus Major, who created Deutsche Texte.txt. If there is anyone out there who might consider translating the Library's 188 lines of labels, tool tips, menu & menuItem, names, error messages, etc. into another language--especially Italian or Portuguese--please contact me privately and give me an opportunity to gently twist your arm a bit. The Library includes a screen that facilitates line-by-line translation, and you now have the choice of translating from Dutch, French, German, or Spanish as alternatives to English. -- Rob Cozens CCW, Serendipity Software Company http://www.oenolog.com/who.htm "And I, which was two fooles, do so grow three; Who are a little wise, the best fooles bee." from "The Triple Foole" by John Donne (1572-1631) _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
