Google works again for me now, yes yandex often fails for me too.
I assume you mean the 'trans' script must have a bug ? (or maybe it's because of recent changes at the yandex end).
Hopefully it gets updated soon so yandex works again.

Install/use wmctrl
Code:
#!/bin/bash

win_class="Achim"

yad --text-info --class="${win_class}" --title="Achim: $(date '+%T')" --width=300 & achims_pid=$!

trap "kill -s SIGUSR1 $achims_pid" EXIT

declare achim_xid

# need some time to register window class with X
while [[ ${achim_xid} == "" ]]; do
   # get Xwindow id
   achim_xid="$(wmctrl -lx | grep -e "yad.${win_class}" |  grep -oE "[0-9a-z]{10}")"
done

# convert to decimal number
achim_xid="$(echo $((${achim_xid})))"

while true
 do
   wmctrl -i -r "${achim_xid}" -N "Achim: $(date '+%T')" 2>/dev/null || break
   sleep 1
done

Hi Fred et al

yes, trans script might have bug.

I want to implement another version which uses yad --notebook with tabs for each engines' result. My first effort failed! would be nice is all.

Also in the engine loop newline after do, by adding
Code:
echo "icon:/usr/share/pixmaps/$ex.png >$PIPE"
tray icon can show which engine is translating....of course need icons first.

Also the
Code:
echo -----^$ex $i^-----
should be at the head instead of underlining each translation in case of a large body of text.
Code:
echo -----$ex $i-----


regards
stemsee

EDIT hi Misko

wouldn't
Code:
while sleep 1; do
be better?

Hi stemsee, good luck with the notebook version, don't think I can help, didn't do much with that.

Yes, would be much better, also I like showing the full language names, so made the "trans_paste" function this(see pic):
Code:
trans_paste () {
#set -x
export TLANG=$(cat $HOME/.trans_target_lang2 2> /dev/null)
export _TLANG=$(cat $HOME/.trans_target_lang2 2> /dev/null | awk '{print $1}' | tr '\n' '+' | sed 's/.$//')
[ -z "$TLANG" ] && export TLANG="English - en"
export ENGINE=$(cat /tmp/_trans_engine_ 2> /dev/null)
[ -z "$ENGINE" ] && ENGINE=google
echo "Using $ENGINE for translating"
ICON="/tmp/trans-paste.svg"
if [ ! -e "$ICON" ]; then
   SVG="<""svg height='100' width='100'>
     <path style='fill:red;stroke:darkred;stroke-width:3;'
     d='M 93,62 C 83,82 65,96 48,96 32,96 19,89 15,79 L 5,90 5,53
     40,53 29,63 c 0,0 5,14 26,14 16,0 38,-15 38,-15 z'/>
     <path style='fill:red;stroke:darkred;stroke-width:3;'
     d='M 5,38 C 11,18 32,4 49,4 65,4 78,11 85,21 L 95,10 95,47
     57,47 68,37 C 68,37 63,23 42,23 26,23 5,38 5,38 z'/>
   </svg>"
   echo "$SVG" > /tmp/trans-paste.svg
fi

Hi Fred

Is it possible to make the headings a different text color? If not I prefer the previous style!

The new code is difficult to understand, for me!

However _ _ _ _ _ Each to their own_ _ _ _ _ Laughing

stemsee

EDIT: I just discovered that google web translate has a character limit of about 3900! Maybe the script could be made to chunk xclip data accordingly?

I'm almost sure that's not possible with the --text-info dialog. (e.g.cannot use <span...> etc..), but correct me if I'm wrong.
What exactly do you prefer then as "previous style" ?

Mmm.. that's a pity, not sure yet how to handle that.
BTW, I think it's better to remove Yandex from the translator choices, it really doesn't work well.

how about html? Smile
Code:
 echo "<h3>heading</h3><font color=red>some text</font>" | yad --html

Hi Fred, Misko et al

yad --html sounds like an interesting development!

by previous I meant the middle style.... not just _ _ _ _ dashes, but with $ex $i and placed as heading of translated text. I found that my eyes could more easily search and find each translated language section. but that's just my experience.

Indeed remove yandex ... maybe replace?? ... DeepL...?

Ok, thanks, never did anything with the yad --html option, I think the compiled yad has to be configured with that, most yad packages (for e.g. Puppy or others) don't have this option by default, I think.

Not so difficult in fact, to explain:
At start of function:
Code:
export TLANG=$(cat $HOME/.trans_target_lang2 2> /dev/null)

$TLANG will output the full contents of $HOME/.trans_target_lang2
And further on:
Code:
while read i; do
echo " >  $ex translation to $(echo $i | awk '{print $1}'):"
xclip -o | trans -e $ex -b -tl $(echo $i | awk '{print $NF}')
done <<< "$TLANG";

Will extract the full language name, e.g. Spanish : $ex translation to $(echo $i | awk '{print $1}')
and the locale code to be used by trans, e.g. es : trans -e $ex -b -tl $(echo $i | awk '{print $NF}')

Ok, but how would you prefer exactly then as header, something like (or.. ?):
----- google translate to Bulgarian -----

I think deepl isn't supported by trans anymore.
