PostPosted: Fri 23 Aug 2019, 13:05    Post subject:  Development of 'trans_tray' (translation program)
Subject description: Continuation from "Yad -Tips" topic		  
Development continuation of "trans_tray", which started in the "Yad - Tips" thread, initially here:
http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?p=1034587#1034587
Until here (at this time): http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?p=1035129#1035129

Started by Argolance who gave a hint about a script using 'xclip' and "trans" piped to yad, followed by contributions from vovchik (nice start concept), josejp2424 , stemsee and myself.

Further contributions and feedback are very welcome !

Fred

I added this to save all translation window texts in root
Code:
for ex in $ENGINE
do
echo "icon:/usr/share/pixmaps/$ex.png" >$PIPE
for i in $TLANG
do
echo ---------------$ex $i-------------------
xclip -o | trans -e $ex -b -tl $i
done; done | yad \
--window-icon="$ICON" \
--text-align=center \
--title="$MYTITLE" \
--geometry=600x600+$SWIDTH+100 \
--fore="black" --back="#fef1e0" \
--margins=5 \
--button="$BUT" \
--text="$HELP" \
--fontname="$FONT" \
--text-info --wrap --tail --editable >$HOME/Trans-Text-$RANDOM

but this creates a file at function start and dumps data on exit, even if it's empty. It would be better to implement a save button. But I couldn't get it to work.

Remember to use DeepL for most Western /
Latin languages, plus Polish and Russian, rather than Google Translate.

DeepL does a better job: its translations sound more natural in the target language.
(And it's not just me saying so.)

you should remove the middle mouse button click on the system tray icon.
since we have exit button in the menu.

As I pointed out on my Arrow 2Pot (2P Online Translator) thread, for me, DeepL has not worked at all for a long time. I think I probably overused the engine while I was working on my scripts and I'm now probably on a blacklist, which can happen to any user. Google, Bing, Yandex do the same thing but only temporarily and not permanently like DeepL, which strategy is unfortunate: pettiness has only a time (it seems that Google has improved significantly since the creation of DeepL).

Works for me this way with Save button, trans_paste function:
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 2> /dev/null)
[ -z "$ENGINE" ] && ENGINE=google
echo "Using $ENGINE for translating"
ICON="/tmp/trans-paste.svg"

Hi everyone. Attached new trans_tray2.

- Added 'Save' button to the window with translated text (possible to edit first)
- Disabled middle click to Exit the tray-icon (since there's Exit in the Menu, as josejp24 and Argolance already stated)

Hi All, just discovered this brilliant code from stemsee (many thanks, also to misko for the help)
http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?p=1035150#1035150
modified a bit and added it to the right-click menu options (View saved translations).
Hope you don't mind Stemsee ? (you can always change how you prefer of course)

Very Happy

Fred, your enthusiasm is contagious! You usually take the initiative and remain a step ahead of the pack!(a lot of the time anyway! Confused )

Is a progress indicator during translation 'easily' implemented....from your googledrive and other apps; you have far more successful experience withit (taking in to account Mochi's observations and hints about progress indicators cutting out before reaching the end.)

EDIT:
Also just to clarify why I prefer the locale code $i (en es de) etc .... it is educational....lazyish learners will learn the international country codes.

Also if only Bing and Google re to be used then 'All' is inappropriate, change 'All' to 'Both' .... I'm keeping yandex so 'All' is ok. But later when you gettext could make a difference.

Also when previewing saved texts --editable for tabnum=2 might be useful, requiring additional save button, and also a refresh button to update list of texts, without closing and opening the viewer again. Or just a button to open selected in geany/leafpad etc.

As for adding DeepL, I'm all for it, but the 'trans' script is in python which I know nothing about, and that's where it needs to be added, unless someone learns DeepL API and implements basic functions in trans_tray2...(maybe you can musher).

Yeah yeah, I will try to calm down now Laughing Laughing

Not saying it's impossible, but to be honest I have no idea even where to start making progress bar for this... Rolling Eyes

i'm liking this! thanks fredx181

some feature requests...

a button to clear the contents

it would also be good to remember window position and size, or at least always open at the bottom directly above the tray icon. remembering the position & size would be better though.

cheers

phil

Hi 666philb

Are you talking about all opening windows or one specific one?

Anyway, in savedtranstext function notice the WINDOWTITLE variable, with the title in spacedless text, that makes it suitable for geometry recorder which has geometry recording code from Mochimoppel, in a function by myself.

Code:
function sayonara {     #MochiMoppel/stemsee geometry recorder
export track=/tmp/trans_tray2
export camino=$HOME/.trans_tray2
[[ ! -f "$track"/geom ]] && exit
   yad --text="$WINDOWTITLE: WT Geometry-Recorder" --window-icon="$pics/wireless.png" \
   --geometry=200x10+100-100 --no-focus --no-buttons --undecorated \
   --on-top --form --skip-taskbar --field="MoreTime:FBTN" "bash -c sayonara" \
   --timeout-indicator=top --timeout=6
   nought=`xwininfo -stats -name "$WINDOWTITLE" | grep "$WINDOWTITLE"`
   XWININFO=`xwininfo -stats -name "$WINDOWTITLE"`
   if [[ ! -z "$nought" ]]; then
      ARRAY=(${XWININFO#* X: })
      AX=${ARRAY[0]}
      AY=${ARRAY[4]}
      RX=${ARRAY[8]}
      RY=${ARRAY[12]}
      W=${ARRAY[14]}
      H=${ARRAY[16]}
      X=$((AX-RX))
      Y=$((AY-RY))
      echo "$W"x"$H"+"$X"+"$Y" > $camino/geometry/$WINDOWTITLE
   else
      exit
   fi
}; export -f sayonara

function switchgr (){ #toggle geometry recorder on or off
[[ -f "$track"/geom ]] && rm -f "$track"/geom || touch "$track"/geom
}; export -f switchgr

#code misko_2083
function savedtranstexts (){
   rm -f /tmp/TP
   stxtp=/tmp/TP
   mkfifo -m 755 $stxtp
   exec 4<> $stxtp
yad --plug=$$ --tabnum=1 --list --item-separator=" " --column="Saved Trans" \
    $(for f in $HOME/trans-*_*; do [[ -f "${f}" ]] && echo "${f##*/}"; done) \
    --select-action="bash -c \"echo -e '\f' >/tmp/TP ; cd "$HOME" ; cat  "%s" >/tmp/TP ; echo -e '\n' >/tmp/TP \""  &
yad --plug=$$ --tabnum=2 --editable --text-info --wrap --listen <&4 &

export WINDOWTITLE="Saved-Texts"
yad --window-icon=gtk-save --geometry=$camino/geometry/$WINDOWTITLE --no-buttons --on-top --paned --splitter=180 --key=$$ --title="$WINDOWTITLE" --tab="Selector" --tab="Preview" --orient=horizontal
   4<&-
   5<&-
   kill -9 $MON_PID
}; export -f savedtranstexts

from my wifi app, edit accordingly...

hi stemsee,

i just meant the main 'trans' window. i have a 4k screen and it's opening right up in the top right of the screen. i've edited the script now for me personally so that it opens bottom right.

thanks for posting the code snippet, although it's way above my pay grade Smile .. hopefully it will make sense to fredx181

cheers

I assume you mean the contents of translated text window, what is it good for to clear the contents ?

Quote:

Yes, that would be good, I think stemsee can make that work properly.

I disagree !! (if you don't mind Wink ) this program is not for educational purpose.

Yes, 'Both" will be better then, and yes additional Save button might be nice for saved-text, DeepL unfortunately isn't supported by trans anymore, I've read good reviews about it. Trans script in Python ? Just bash AFAIK.
