HOW TO TRANSLATE NOOTKA
********************************************************************
=====================================================================
This process is very easy and does not require any programming skills,
only some time and a bit of patience.
=====================================================================
Translation with application: Qt Linguist or lokalize (this is recommended way)
1. Install Qt Linguist:
Linux users will prefer using package manager of their distribution. Linguist will be there.
For Mac and Windows users:
- form http://www.qt.io/download-open-source/ download online installer,
launch it and follow its instructions - select the latest version of Qt.
Select 'Desktop gcc' check box of the latest Qt version listed there
or install lokalize.
2. Download Nootka language file: https://sourceforge.net/p/nootka/hg/ci/default/tree/lang/nootka_xx.ts?format=raw
and change that xx in file name to your language code to get file name like i.e.: nootka_en.ts
3. Open this file by Qt Linguist and translate - this is very easy.
4. In every moment you can generate a "language package" form menu File->Release (file with *.qm extension)
and put that file in Nootka installation directory into the lang folder
i.e.: path_to_nootka/lang/nootka_en.qm
and run Nootka to see effects of the translation
To test translation under Android version:
- create Nootka folder on memory card of your device (or just in device memory if no card)
- then copy *.qm file there
Translation online trough LaunchPad:
A disadvantage of this method is that you can not easily generate translation package (*.qm)
to check your translation in action.
1. You have to have account on https://launchpad.net/
2. Then visit a site: https://translations.launchpad.net/nootka
3. Start translation or continue existing one.
4. To generate Nootka-loadable file and launch Nootka with it you have to:
- download *.po file from site
- convert it to *.qm (it is necessary to have Qt istalled and command line lconvert program is shipped with it)
lconvert -i your_file.po -o nootka_languageCode.qm
- and put that file in Nootka installation directory into the lang folder
***************************************************************
************* A Few Hints *************************************
* (Only in Qt Linguist)To approve translated entry you can use [CTRL+Enter] - it will be automatically marked as finished.
* Do not remove any special characters like \n %1 %n or HTML tags like
and .
* To copy original entry use [CTRL+b] and then just translate.
Obviously you can move this mischievous characters and tags
to make whole translated sentence proper in your language
* Often use [CTRL+s] to save your work
* PLEASE BE RESPONSIBLE !!! USE KIND WORDS AND OFFICIAL MUSICAL TERMS.
DO NOT USE SOME SLANG WORDS EVEN MUSICAL. Nootka is used by children and pupils
