Translation tool
Posted: Thu Sep 13, 2012 7:39 am
I wrote a resource editor for translation which modifies translatable fields only.
I did this by modding Andor's Trail Translation validator.
(I think this is so ad-hoc compared to the ideas recently discussing (use external website or convert from PO file), but it will ease my own work at least.)
To test this, you will need a full clone of andors-trail source repository and a web server
(like apache) which allows access to your repository.
Webserver is neccesary. This editor uses XMLHttpRequest and most browsers can't access local files through XMLHttpRequest from security reason.
To install, simply overwrite unzipped files in anodrs-trail/AndorsTrailEdit.
After install, go to
http://<your-server>/<your-repository>/AndorsTrailEdit/translations2.html
on your browser.
Current issue:
* Can't translate 'strings.xml'
* Not Tested Well
Only tested in my environment.
(Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux i686; rv:15.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/15.0.1)
* Rough-cutting interface
* Messages in dialog boxes may be funny
I'm not a native speaker. if you find strange, ask here.
* Slow a bit
* More appropriate name. So bad 'translations2.html'
