Hi aitch,

I am unaware of that issue I really don't know. I think it might have something to do with what The Hamsters was attempting to do, something related with utf-8, and being able to imput greek characters into Dialogs and console windows.

(Not sure tho, and I think the issue needs to be solved, but is not really a big big deal, i think. Maybe for Chinese people, who need their titles in chinese, for example.)

But I think this has been attempted, don't know where though.

Cheers!

Should this be done in default Puppy version? I think it would be a good idea to wait untill Puppy 4.2.x is totally bug-free and then grab it, and add all localizations, plus this.

Anyone up to it? I could make a pet of all english tar.gz s here. Someday. I think that'd be step 1. I would love to be able to do a script that would download only files that are attached in phpBB forums, and nothing else.

Wait, I can!!

I think i will.

[magerlab]

i say again that it all MUST be in default puppy
i'll do what i can to provide russian locale files

hi droope

we are having an effect - keep pushing!

[droope]

Do you reckon it'd be really necesary? Where would that book be? (besides that page, i mean)

Bonjour à tous,
I resume this post.
Here is an updated localized xorgwizard script from last Puppy 4.17.
To test in Puppy 4.16 or 4.17
If (when it'll be OK after tests) Barry Kauler could introduce it in future alpha and beta releases, it would be a great help for translators.

good job, esmourguit.

i put 3 comments

1. note that Barry add some code to 416.
   #w482 allow switch between intel_drv.so and i810OLD_drv.so.
   
   
2. any of localisation on X failes because of the bug in /usr/bin/xwin.
   see http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?p=325229#325229
   
   
3. the localization scripts by MU can be improbed.
   next code distinguishes zh_CN and zh_TW for example.
   assumed default messages at ./C/*/*.mo instead of ./en/*/*.mo.
   

   Code:

   # set locale for LOCALE in C $(echo $LANGUAGE|cut -d':' -f1) $LC_ALL $LANG;do :;done   # ex.    ja_JP.UTF-8 # search locale file LOCALE1=$(echo $LOCALE|cut -d'.' -f1)      # ex.   ja_JP LOCALE2=$(echo $LOCALE|cut -d'_' -f1)   # ex.   ja LOCALEDIR=/usr/share/locale LOCALEFILE=$(basename $0).mo for D in C $LOCALE2 $LOCALE1 $LOCALE do    F="$LOCALEDIR/$D/LC_MESSAGES/$LOCALEFILE"    [ -f "$F" ] && . "$F" done

Bonjour à tous,
@ shinobar,
You're great.
I Tested your xwin file and all works perfectly. I have tried also without the french locale file and all went ok.
And what about the xorgwizard localized file?
I hope Barry will include it in next release.
