dotpup incl. PuppyUniversalInstaller and PuppyPackageManager

#1 Post by L18L »

hello world,

download attached file dotpup_i18n
read README
do it

best regards
L18L

Edit: tested in quirky120 and Lupu501 (every woof-built should do it)

Edit: Puppy 431 is woof-built

UTF-8 encoding (apps faster without) :!:
but with it they are more understandable in the world :roll:
make a choice :D

Now I would like to admit it was my fault to think that UTF-8 is needed for gettexting (just from my limited experiences).
shinobar has shown that it is working for both with and without UTF-8
(see next post). Anyway for internationalization UTF-8 is standard now, and hopefully gettext'ed scripts will be in woof.
:D

OUTPUT_CHARSET

#2 Post by shinobar »

Thanks L18L,
I found that should set the variable OUTPUT_CHARSET to show correct character both with UTF-8 and with non-UTF-8 locale:

Code: Select all

export OUTPUT_CHARSET=UTF-8
Of course, the translations (.po) should be in UTF-8 encoding with next headers:

Code: Select all

"Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8\n"
"Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit\n"
