language question for development

#1 Post by jurgen69 »

I once took a good look at the structure of mxlinux, but I wonder why are the languages (for editing in a format like .qm, I wonder.
why I ask that (to change them) I have seen a round and do not know what to think, but they refer to Nokia Lol ..
my question now is, how do you edit these files and what is the best released program

Qt's development environement QT-Creator (IDE) comes also open source.
You can use it for free. You can create and edit qm-translation files with the QT-Creator IDE.
You can install qtcreator as part of "QT5 Development Environment"
from with MXPI (MX Package Installer) :number1:

If you need simply to edit exiting qm-file (qt compile translation files)
you can simply convert them like this:

Code: Select all

lconvert -i compiled_qt_translations.qm -o Qt_translation_sources.ts
You can open and edit the sources.ts file with any text-editor. :happybday:

history lesson: Nokia once owned Qt when they purchased Trolltech.

Most, but not all, of the Qt MX apps are developed inside of Qt Creator.

FYI: mx "test" repo is not the same thing as debian testing repo.
