A large translation project: cli-shell-utils

#1 Post by BitJam »

Here is the link to the Transifex page: cli-shell-utils. This is for the new live-usb-maker and live-kernel-updater programs. There are 722 words in 162 strings.

With the help of Megatotoro and Old Giza I made some corrections and added more comments. There are a few screen shots of the live-usb-maker program in this thread. I can provide more screen shots if you think it would be useful. There were a few places where I asked the Japanese translator to leave words untranslated. This was because I have trouble handling double-wide characters in those locations. If those translations can be done with normal width characters, that would be fine.

AFAIK, this is the only large translation project for MX-16.

In string 125, is Enter referring to the "Enter key" or to "enter a number"?

Thanks Henry! It is referring to the Enter key. I've added a comment in the .pot file to make this clear.

Yes the ' was missing. Should be fixed now. Thanks!

Dutch has been done. Gee what a big one. I hope I did it somewhat right, with no Dutchies to cross check.

I hope this will pop that one line up:

the word configuration was misspelled.

A bit late (just returning from a two weeks trip), but now all the Catalan translations done.

By the way, presume that <Enter> can be replaced by <Retorn>, as we name it. The '<Enter>' word appears in blue while in Transifex, not sure if it is replaced by something else.

And thanks to the dev(s) for the good work!
