Localization: i8n-test -- post issues with localizing here

[Justin]

There is a build of REAPER with initial, experimental localization features, available here:

http://landoleet.org/i8n/


In this thread, please discuss any issues you find when creating a localization, i.e. if you find that setting certain strings do not work, or if you have ideas to speed the process up.

There is a separate thread for posts about bugs in this version of REAPER vs the normal version(s), please post those sort of bugs there and not here.

Notes:

• At this time only REAPER itself and the MIDI editor are localizable, we will be doing more in the future to improve this.
  
• Many of the dialog resources will not have room for longer translations -- we apologize for this and will be improving that in the future, before a general release without any doubt.

First I had problems with "German Umlauts", after setting to Unicode UTF-8, no BOM all is ok.

From the link:
"Note: to test, grab a langpack file from landoleet."
I not saw any langpack at landoleet. Where I get the langpacks?
Greetins.

I just finished the version for the planet Vulcan and fellow member Mr Data.



But seriously, holy workhorse Batman! That's a task. We're going to need a good strategy and tools to collab with this.

EDIT: Juca, language packs are the *.txt files over there. A the moment there's english, lower case, upper case and leet.

If Reaper had at better Gui for its effect I would really be happy, but for now I am over Protools and all the other pocket emptying DAW's

Magnificent second post that's totally unrelated to the thread it's posted to.

What exactly is this and how much of a leap forward would this be for the current version of Reaper?

Thanks!

SEA - a localized version of Reaper allows translating properties, menus, and whatnot in Reaper, to any language (provided there's a language file for that language). It's not much of a leap, but it will make Reaper multilingual, which is a nice thing, right?

Count me in the Frenchy Team, I'm in.

Probably a "compression" of the more proper "i18n" term.

What it means is that once you or somebody else kind enough has translated the language pack file (eg "leet.txt") to one of the Indian languages, it will then be available in that language to everybody else too. So far only available with the experimental Reaper build.

Link to the language pack files and instructions was already on top;

Hello friends, I have been working with the new template (9Feb2015), but still have a problem that I think it´s already mentioned in this Thread but I cant find the answer.

The thing is that some lines that are translated in the .txt, are OK for the PC version but not in MAC

Does anybody know how to solve this?

I attach two images in which the same Langpack is used so you can see what I´m talking about.

Thanks a lot ¡¡¡

A new template langpack is available (on lol/i8n): template_2015-03-23.ReaperLangPack.

It contains new strings, etc but it mainly allows you fixing OSX menu issues like:

Well, let us know if not!

Has this something to be with what I posted ??? Is any king of code to copy for solving the tranlation problem ?

Thanks

[dimitris_T]

I will try to start a Greek translation.
If anyone else from Greece here, please let me know.
