Dear all,

I think the exit button in the popup is useful. If you are testing versions, or just cleaning up, it is useful. If you accidentally click it, which might happen once in a while, there is nothing stopping you from restarting the script, either via a possible menu entry, via a desktop file or via a click in ROX. I would leave it where it is, since it has a purpose, at least for me.

With kind regards,
vovchik

I understand you very well what you say. It's fine for me too.
but I am looking at it from the end user perspective.
It is not practical

By default, the middle mouse button closes the notification icon and therefore, the "exit" menu entry may not be necessary, unless the central button is disabled.

What a shame that improvements and features are lost from one version to another due to a lack of coordination between the different jobs. I wonder if it would not be wise to open a new topic dedicated to this project. I must admit that by putting the little script online, I didn't think it would generate so much interest and enthusiasm.
This forum is really amazing.

Cheers!

I am amused by your comments

Maybe we should open a poll question about this EXIT matter
It's easy to remove from menu, btw, just delete the selected blue showing on pic below

How about re-coding to allow two or three instances, so translating from say Chinese to English and Chinese to Dutch and Chinese to Spanish will be automatic. And/or allow comparison of translations by three different services.

Hi All,

As a compromise for the EXIT menu entry issue here's new trans_tray, which gives a yes/no dialog "Are you sure ... ... ?" when clicking on Exit.
Also made small fix for when canceling (or clicking Ok without selecting language) the "Select target language" list dialog, previously it switched to (default) English, now language stays on what it was before, as it should be IMO.

Probably in theory it's possible looking at the options of trans, but.. phew... to implement that in this script, it will be quite a challenge

I like the new output dialog.
this is better to avoid closing by mistake

[vovchik]

Dear fredx181,

The close dialog is fine. Thanks....

I'm going to test thanks stemsee

[fredx181]

Thanks stemsee, I modified your script to make it work with multiple languages selected, but could not figure out how to run the different translators after each other.

I cannot fnd trans' executable! please post a copy.

It's here: https://github.com/soimort/translate-shell#installation
Right click on "the self-contained executable" and select: Save link as"
(depends on gawk)

@All anyone has opinion about the following ? :
In the "trans_paste" function there was originally at the end ">(xclip -i)" (I commented it out now below)
I've found that if you left-click the icon second or third time the output becomes very messy, because it loads xclip with the translated text (which can be handy but causes the mess if you click second or third time).
I'd say for this program it's better without the ">(xclip -i)".

P.S. At the moment the Google translator doesn't work for me, no idea why, Bing works.

Code: Select all

#!/bin/bash

export PROG=$(basename $0)

[stemsee]

Thanks stemsee, I modified your script to make it work with multiple languages selected, but could not figure out how to run the different translators after each other.

That's why I let it run three instances, then one can choose any number of languages to translate for each instance of the three tray menus.

However I will add a simple edit to allow one instance to do all three engines (I think!?).

thanks for trans link.

[stemsee]

ok here it's working. I think that choosing the engines same way as choosing the languages would be better. As it is all 3 engines are used with google last, or one selected engine is used. Tested with 4 selected languages.

Needed only a nested loop; with the outer loop for each engine.

Code: Select all

#!/bin/bash

export PROG=$(basename $0)
running=`ps -e | grep -w "$PROG" | wc -l`
[[ "$running" -gt 2 ]] && exit  # run only one instance

hi Fred

yandex isnt working for me. Google not working for you. Script must have a bug!

Nice work stemsee, working fine for me !!

yandex isnt working for me. Google not working for you. Script must have a bug!

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: Select all

#!/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: Select all

echo "icon:/usr/share/pixmaps/$ex.png >$PIPE" 

tray icon can show which engine is translating....of course need icons first.

Also the

Code: Select all

echo -----^$ex $i^-----

should be at the head instead of underlining each translation in case of a large body of text.

Code: Select all

echo -----$ex $i-----

regards
stemsee

EDIT hi Misko

wouldn't

Code: Select all

while sleep 1; do

be better?
