Is it possible to have a button that show what was the original english word that everybody knows what it means and then at next click it shift back to the local language?

Hello shinobar

Although I am mono-lingual , this SFS seems to work just fine in Lucid Puppy 5.

I did have a problem with my screen resolution though in the first setup.

I am testing French, not that I can speak French but I have been working with some of the guys localising Quickpet, a new program in Puppy , and French is one of the languages working with it so far.

Thanks for this.

Cheers

Mick

Multilingal support on Puppy updated.
lang_support_all-1.4.sfs now supports 4.x and 5.x puppy/pupplets including Quirky-1.2 and Lupu-5.0.1.

What happens if you load lang-support-all.sfs on a Puppy 4.3.1 system that already has Chinese display support installed?

Is there a danger of corruption?

recommmended to use lang-support-all with native puppy/pupplet.
boot up with 'pfix=ram' option and make new pupsave, then apply lang-support-all-*.sfs.

Multilingal support on Puppy updated. See the first post of this topic.
Now Fatdog64, Lupu-5.1 ready, but no translations for IceWM nor Firefox.

Mirror for lang_support_all-1.5.sfs

thanks to smokey01

Icewm has NLS files, and Firefox has NLS at the main site, and Language plugins so as far as I see that is not a big problem.. maybe though Icewm doesn't support CJK, not sure.

Hello,

I'm a relative puppy noob, but i cannot apply the .sfs file as the opening post suggests, i'm dying to get puppy translated in dutch through this solution but i don't know what to do.

Am i suppose to extract it and drop it into sda1?

Thanks for the help in advance

I like this package. Used it to localize wary into Russian. Found the problem. It switches time to few hours. The problem is in /etc/rc.country - replaced it with the original but changed one line to except UTF-8 from SFS's rc.country. It changes console font while booting but does not change time. Cannot use Lupu. It's too heavy for my old PC and it hangs up on another one when I put in USB-flash or modem.

I am currently using lucid puppy.

since I am using scim to key-in Japanese, I installed these pets in the system:

1.scim-1.4.9.pup4.4.2.2.1.pet
2.scim-anthy-1.2.7.pup4.4.2.2.1.pet
3.scim-bridge-0.4.16-pup4.pet
4.anthy-9100h.patch13Bptn23/2009527.1.pet

The scim is working fine with these pets installed.

But I also want to have another language input, which is the chinese.

So, I went to www.scim-im.org and downloaded an archive named scim-pinyin-0.5.91.tar.gz

that claims to be able the user to use pinyin to input the chinese.

Since this is not a pet file, how I am going to let my puppy recognize the files inside the archive? For example, where should I extract the folder to? And what are the steps after the extraction? Or I am still lack of some other files to complete my installation?

Please help.
