Application: Poedit
Category: Development
Description: Poedit is the popular Poedit GNU GetText translator, which helps you translate strings for applications that use the GetText i18n format. (To check whether an app does, and so whether you can use this, look for *.po files. The main reason I did this is for BPBible translators...)

Toucan also uses this and it should make it much easier for new translators Smiling

wxLocale classes are what you are looking for, they are excellent, translation support in Toucan is less than 100 lines I would estimate.

Thanks, I'll take a look at Toucan's source code to see if I can borrow some code. My localization code must be well over 400 lines of code, and it's not easy at all to update existing translations.

I think the concept of fuzzy matching in poedit/gettext and the way it highlights missing strings is great.

Standardised too.

Add to that the fact that gettext is pretty much a standard for translating. There are libraries to read it in almost any language.

  • \App\readme.txt: Inkscape Sticking out tongue
  • appinfo.ini: Publisher=Vaclav Slavik & PortableApps.com
  • leaves file $TEMP\ns*.tmp\Registry.dll behind. Add the line ${registry::Unload} to TheEnd of your launcher.
  • PoeditPortable.nsi: change line 251 to FindProcDLL::FindProc "$PROGRAMEXECUTABLE"
  • I choose german at the start, but Poedit is always in english. And it asks every time which language.

Cheers, Bart.S

Too many lonely hearts in the real world
Too many bridges you can burn
Too many tables you can't turn

I did the Danish translation of Abiword in Poedit. A good tool.
