MMEX Discussion Forum

this is my first particitpation (not finished yet ... with a cave voice: "I'll be back")

but I have a fatal error when I try to open and save it.
I don't know why, could you help?

You,ve got the error:

10:09:57: /home/mashiks/Загрузки/french.po `msgid' and `msgstr' entries do not both end with '\n'
10:09:57: msgfmt: found 1 fatal error

open .po file in any txt editor (with go to line... functionality) and look at your translation

#: src/mmex.cpp:4185
msgid ""
"Specify the base (or default) currency to be used for the\n"
"database. The base currency can later be changed by using\n"
"the options dialog. New accounts, will use this currency by\n"
"default, and can be changed when editing account details."
msgstr ""
"Indiquer la devise principale (ou par défaut) utilisée \n"
"avec la base de données. Vous pouvez modifier la \n"
"devise associée à chaque compte si nécessaire.\n"
somthing else should be writen here

PS what kind of translator are you using? poedit or https://translations.launchpad.net/mmex ?

hi, nikolay,
thanks a lot.
I'll correct it and continue


I use POedit as requested in your translation page.

are we agree that if in the original words we have ( for example)
&delete
de &d is important and must be kept ( a kind of shortkey)in the translation?
it can't be translated with "&sauver" for exemple?

could you please check the line "Imported transactions have been flagged so you can review them."
the translators has put 5 lines in place of one.with some variables.
is it ok for you?

You don't must kept & and even ampersand may be omitted.

Unfortunatly that information is wrong. Stefano is main developer for now and seems when translation files has been updated he start to be translator for all languages.

phira wrote:ok, I begin to understand how the translation system works.
I love to contribute like that.
it pushes the translation rate to 92% .
I hope that someone will review.

launchpad is great system where translators working at any open projects. They use global translation database therefore you can see translation variants. Translators don't need any special tools like poeditor and make translations online.
I think you can create account on launchpad and make translation online.
