Title: Spanish lang
Post by: Fico on March 10, 2010, 06:03:46 pm
Is someone already working on the spanish version of the lang file for 1.5.3?

I'll be glad to translate it, but I don't want to rework something someone else is working on.

I'm not sure. Fabricio said several times that he will create the Spanish language file, but there's no contribution by now.

Thanks a lot for your contribution; I'm glad that finally someone started working on the Spanish language file. I have added your work in progress to the subversion repository; please use that version (http://coppermine.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/coppermine/trunk/cpg1.5.x/lang/spanish.php?view=log) to continue, as I had to change some things around. Also please use an editor that is capable to handle utf-8 encoded files (I can recommend notepad++, see Tools recommended by the devs -> Text editors (http://documentation.coppermine-gallery.net/en/dev_tools.htm#dev_tools_editor) and Translation Guide -> Editors & Tools (http://documentation.coppermine-gallery.net/en/translation.htm#translation_editors))

Any news on the language file?
Title: Re: Spanish lang
Post by: dtc on April 24, 2010, 07:40:26 am
hello, I have been translating parts of the file in English, to pass into Spanish. I have translated and the most important parts, but there is a problem: They accidentally, I erased the line breaks, so there remains only that someone gave you the space and corresponding jumps. I leave here in case anyone wants to do, it's almost to Nadama enter the lines which correspond to pass to the next paragraph, though of course if they just translated, then I welcome that, at last, and very little missing.

Regards

///////Original en español

hola, he estado traduciendo partes de el archivo en ingles, para pasarlo al español. He traducido ya las partes mas importantes, pero hay un problema: sin querer, se me borraron los saltos de linea, asi que solo quedaria que alguien le diera los espacios y saltos correspondientes. Lo dejo aqui por si alguien quiere hacerlo, es casi dar nadamas enter en las lineas que corresponan para pasarlas al siguiente parrafo; aunque claro, si quieren acabar de traducirlo, pues bienvenido sea, al fin, ya es muy poco lo que falta.

Saludos

Have you used fermunoz' language file as base or have you started from scratch?


accidentally, I erased the line breaks
I haven't committed your file yet because of that reason.

Please attach your file to your forum post next time. I've done this in this post. See attachment.

accidentally, I erased the line breaks

I've written a little scripts that (hopefully) inserts all needed line breaks:
Code: [Select]
$text = file_get_contents('spanish.php');
foreach(array('$', 'EOT;', 'if', '{', '}') as $value) {
    $text = str_replace($value, "\n".$value, $text);
}
file_put_contents('spanish_new.php', $text);

Currently the Spanish language file is a big clump (see attachment). Maybe someone wants to beautify the file and check if everything works as expected. Maybe somebody has a better idea how to restore that file.

Hm, this has been harder than I expected: dtc's contribution is still a partial translation, but it's more complete by far than what we previously got from fermunoz. Sadly, dtc hasn't built his work on the language file contributed by fermunoz, but has started from scratch, which is imo a big waste of resources. Sadly, dtc has made some serious mistakes with the file, removing some line breaks here and adding other lin breaks there. I have spent the past two hours or so trying to extract a working language file from what dtc has submit. The changes that I had to perform (and there were quite a lot of them) went into rev 7473 in the subversion repository. All who want to contribute to the Spanish language file should build on that version in the SVN and not on the file attached to this thread! Get the most recent spanish language file from the subversion repository by clicking here (http://coppermine.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/coppermine/trunk/cpg1.5.x/lang/spanish.php).

@all (potential) translators: there is quite a lot of documentation available for cpg1.5.x, and a huge section that explains translation (http://documentation.coppermine-gallery.net/en/translation.htm) in detail. Please read that section thoroughly before you start translating, this will save you (and us) much grief.

Nonetheless I want to say "thank you" again. Don't get me wrong in this aspect: we appreciate your contributions. It would be better though (much better) if they were in a manner that enables us to use your translation right away without the need to perform heavy edits.


@dtc: please don't translate variable names or array keys: the line $lang_translation_info['lang_name_español'] = 'español' (MX)'; in the file you provided is of course nonsense and needs to be $lang_translation_info['lang_name_english'] = 'Spanish';. Please be extra carefull with single quotes as content of strings.

Hi,

Please find attached a not-yet-finished spanish_es.php file. It's based on the 7476 rev in the subversion repository and using all I could reuse from fantastic Grumpywolf translation, but I coudn't finish it today - and I won't work on it again until tomorrow. Just my two cents in case someone keeps it going this afternoon.

I've created the localized version for Spain, since it seemed to me that the mexican version wouldn't be very clear for us here in Spain.

Sorry to say that I haven't used a CVS tool to integrate it in the repository - and I believe I coudn't use it anyway since I'm not a registered developer.

Feel free to give it a go but always make sure you download the latest file from the repositry before you start. Whenever you stop work for any period of time make sure you  zip and save your file to the forum here so we can update the repositry. Then again, before you start download the latest version just incase anyone has made any changes.

You can always download the lates file from the repositry here - http://coppermine.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/coppermine/trunk/cpg1.5.x/lang/spanish.php

Please make sure you read the docs Joahim linked to above before you start.

Wait a second. If the Spanish language differs so much from the Mexican language, we have to create two different files imo. The current spanish.php in the svn repository is not the file jmatute attached, but dtc's one.

I suggest to stop collaborative work until we decided if we create two different language files or if we use only the language file translated from people from Spain.
Title: Re: Spanish lang
Post by: phill104 on April 27, 2010, 07:24:24 pm
Good point though most Mexicans do understand spanish fully (at least from my understanding). It is a bit like the various regions of the German speaking world with slight differences but basically the same, or comparing British English to the odd version Americans have adopted (insert fishing emoticon). As we have a British and an American language file yes we could have both. My only concern is that it has already been very hard to get this translation done in the first place and as it is at least we have something all the Spanish speakers can live with.

Hi,

Sincerely: I woudn't use dtc's file in my gallery (and began my own translating on my own) not just due to the small mexican/spanish language differences, but because of errors in the translation. Accents are missing, gramatical errors, plain translation in several phrases, and so on. And I'm wondering why he didn't use 1.4.x translation as a base. IMHO it's wonderful - and I'm not connected to the translators in any way.

Not trying to upset anybody, but explaining my point of view.

And just another point: I'm not a 'character sets' expert. Everytime I've played with UTF-8 I messed my file (or so I thought), so I decided to keep working in ASCII. Could anybody convert it before uploading to the repository? Is this the reason why my gallery (http://www.carmenyjoseluis.com/galeria) messes up? (kind of a nonsense question)

Regards,
José Luis.

I too noticed a lot of missing accents and other mistakes. I do not speak spanish but had lessons at school so remember enough to pick up on a few things. It is a real shame Fabriccio is quiet these days.

I'm mot trying to put down anyones work here by the way, it is great that you are all giving it a go. All language files are a great help. In the case of Spanish, there has alway been a large user base which is why I am surprised this has not been completed sooner. Keep up the good work all.
Title: Re: Spanish lang
Post by: Joachim Müller on April 28, 2010, 09:25:27 pm
Please don't send emails around. Instead, attach what you have to this thread as suggested.
I will create a separate Mexican language file. We have decided on the US English language file to be the standard file during development, that's why it is named english.php and not english_us.php. A similar thing can be said about Spanish: the file spanish.php should be the Spanish spoken on the Spanish mainland (Castellano). There can be other language files for the other versions of Spanish spoken throughout the world.
Edit changes went into rev 7481.

Hola,

Esta es la respuesta a tu oferta de ayuda. Ante todo, gracias. Vamos a ver cómo lo podemos terminar lo más pronto posible.

Para empezar descarga la última versión que esté en el foro. En él verás secciones que empiezan como '// File'. Para trabajar en el fichero de forma conjunta creo que lo mejor es que nos ocupemos cada uno de nosotros de los mensajes de un fichero. He puesto la palabra 'Traducida' en las que ya he terminado. Te recomiendo que elijas un fichero / sección que te resulte conocido, y que abras una vieja versión de la galería en español para copiar y pegar todo lo que puedas - la traducción de versiones anteriores es estupenda desde mi punto de vista.

Ya que dices que no eres programador: ten cuidado con las cosas que no hay que traducir (como los símbolos %s por ejemplo), y con las que hay que quitar: el apóstrofe que nosotros no usamos se tiene que poner como \' en el fichero de lenguaje inglés, como otro ejemplo. Ante la duda no lo toques, y deja una pmarca como '//  pendiente'. La doble barra es importante para que se sepa que es un comentario.

Cuando termines súbelo al foro - con un poco de suerte lo usarán para meterlo en el repositorio de versiones, y lo usaré yo mañana.

Si tienes dudas no tienes más que preguntar. No te puedo prometer respuesta hasta esta noche.

Hi,

This is it.

Of course, there are some points to bear in mind about some specific sections:
- I haven't installed Coppermine from scratch yet (nor the old versions - someone did it for me). I'll try in next days so I can see if messages are the most appropiate ones.
- Nearly the same applies to upgrading a gallery, because I did it using the english language.
- Same applies to plugins, bridges, and some other sections
- And I'm sure there will be some other issues I'll change, or someone will point us to change. So you can expect new versions of this file.

Hi,

Playing around I've found some issues. Those about language are corrected in this new file, and there are another two I can't work out on my own.

- In the main menu there are two options that I can't find in the language file: 'Files' and 'Information'
- Default names for the user-defined fields could/should be in the language file

Title: Re: Spanish lang
Post by: Joachim Müller on May 04, 2010, 07:40:50 am
This is it.
Thanks for your contribution. I applied a minor fix. Changes went into rev 7497/7498.

- In the main menu there are two options that I can't find in the language file: 'Files' and 'Information'
For the term "files" in this instance, the variable $lang_cat_list['pictures'] is being used. For the term "information", the variable $lang_common['information'] is being used. Your translations are $lang_cat_list['pictures'] = 'Fotos'; and $lang_common['information'] = 'Información'; // cpg1.5. You have translated the English term "file" with "foto". That's not a good idea, as Coppermine is a multimedia gallery and not only a photo gallery (I confess that the abbreviation "CPG" is a bit misleading in this aspect). You may be using it for photos only, but others won't. I suggest reviewing your translation accordingly. When the term "file" is being used throughout the language file, you should use the Spanish term "archivo" in my opinion. We went through this change already back in cpg1.3.x when multimedia capabilities were added and Coppermine turned from a image-only app to a multimedia app. The term "foto" may not be applicable anyway, as some may use Coppermine for images that are not photos (e.g. render files or other visual content that was not generated using a camera).

- Default names for the user-defined fields could/should be in the language file
Technically not possible right now. That would in fact be a feature request, which can not be taken into account at this stage, sorry. In fact, the default name for the stuff that resides the database is English, like "User gallery" etc.

Google Analytics Plugin is mine!
Please post in the corresponding announcement thread for the plugin you refer to.

Thanks again

All I asked for was a link to your gallery. Instead, you post excuses. That doesn't help. Just pasting the URL of your gallery into your posting and hitting the "post"-button should take less than 20 seconds and everybody would be happy again. So far, we haven't seen any help from you, but only questions. Become a giver instead of taker - that's what jmatute did, and we appreciate that very much.

When the term "file" is being used throughout the language file, you should use the Spanish term "archivo" in my opinion.

You're right - my translation was biased. I worked yesterday on it, but forgot the file here at work. I'll try to upload it today. And I've done some other changes - some pending variables translated and some other modified, both for accuracy and word/phrase length reasons. I haven't finished yet, although. Do you know when 1.5.4 will be released (aprox) so I'll do my best?

Technically not possible right now. That would in fact be a feature request, which can not be taken into account at this stage, sorry. In fact, the default name for the stuff that resides the database is English, like "User gallery" etc.

Such a pity. I truly believe they should be translated (can this be considered a feature request?  ;) ), and I've seen some similar stuff during some installations I made yesterday, from scratch. I'll post them in the install support board.

No. But the languages files can be updated with every release.

Hi,

Sorry to say there were some errors in last file (sent from work, hadn't tried it) and it didn't work. I did my first inmersion in PHP error-hunting and solved them.

Hi,

Please find attached the last version of the language file and the first one of the documentation (script.js file).

I've tried script.js here at work, but can't say the same about spanish.php - I can't upload it in my site from here.

I began translating script.js because I saw it's the TOC in all documents I entered - except for TOC.htm. After some days I found this post - if there isn't any update I'll keep this order. BTW, don't know if this thread is the appropiate one to post these files or I should upload them in the original one (http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php/topic,62976.msg312749.html#msg312749) where Joachim posted the matrix.

Regards,

Hello all,

the documentation in English is pretty complete, but a vast part of the translations is missing, so it's time to start organizing translation and maintenance of the docs.

I have come up with a document matrix where alle current documents are in. The table itself should be pretty self-explanatory. Those who have edit permissions here in this thread, feel free to edit the table to update it. Those who want to volunteer for translation of a particular file: go ahead and reply here.

The French team members (especially Francois as far as I can see) have done an enormous job so far, translating a lot of the documents - good job guys! Maybe it's time to start with the Spanish translation (or any other language) - feel free to contribute here (but please don't respond by saying something like "I'd surely like to see the documentation in my language XYZ as well" - this thread should not be one that consists of requests, but of contributions. OK, enough talk, here's the list:

Great work - I have added a Spanish branch of the docs in the subversion repository (http://coppermine.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/coppermine/trunk/cpg1.5.x/docs/es/) and added the corresponding files - they will be in revision 7527

Hi,

Please find attached several files translated to Spanish. You can see them in action here (http://www.carmenyjoseluis.com/galeria/docs/es/index.htm).

Of course there will be new versions, since every time I read them I find some phrase that can be told some other way.

Regards,
Title: Re: Spanish lang
Post by: jmatute on May 14, 2010, 12:07:09 am
BTW:

I don't know if you're aware of the two different 'you' that spanish language has: 'usted' (very formal, somehow being abandoned, exceptional among computer users) and 'tu' (used to be informal but gaining acceptance if you show respect, rare in formal docs, almost always used in computer-related issues).

I'm assuming that the respectful-but-not-so-formal approach is fine for the documentation. Somehow using 'usted' makes this help files (like the ones from 1.4.x) cold and distant.

I hope it's OK. But I'm open to hear other opinions.

Regards,

Thanks again. Your changes went into rev 7534 except your edit of script.js that I had to drop: you haven't based your translation on the file script.js from the svn repository, but the one based on your contribution from Wednesday. You have to take into account that I have performed several edits to the files you contributed, which would be lost if I just replaced the files in the svn repository with your files. The edit I had performed against script.js before committing it to the subversion (http://documentation.coppermine-gallery.net/en/dev_subversion.htm) repository was too drastical to merge the changes back in using a diff viewer. Please re-apply your edits to the file scripts.js that can be found in the subversion repository and re-attach your changed file. Please do always check out the subversion repository before editing your files. Sorry for the added work.

You are right - it's the one I use locally and easier for me to work on.

The edit I had performed against script.js ... was too drastical to merge the changes back

I've downloaded it, and I can see your modified it much more than I did. I use tools that 'checkout for edit', locking the file, so this issue doesn't occurs in my job.

Please re-apply your edits to the file scripts.js that can be found in the subversion repository and re-attach your changed file.

Done - and some new ones.

Please do always check out the subversion repository before editing your files. Sorry for the added work.

So I will remember (or at least will try) - even for the documentation files at the very moment I begin working on them. And modifications weren't that big.

BTW: I've seen some anchor points in the documentation files that aren't linked to from this script but similar paragraps/sections have an entry in it (for instance, First run (http://http:carmenyjoseluis.com/galeria/docs/es/upgrading.htm#versioncheck_first_run) in the upgrading.htm file. Suppose it's all right, isn't it?. Or should I report them?


[Edit] Sorry I forgor the attach.

Thanks again for your contribution. Well done on re-editing scripts.js. I have added it to the repository, revision 7535.
Please go ahead and report missing anchors in a separate thread. You're welcome as well to come up with a fixed version of docs/en/script.js that contains the missing anchors if you want.

Hi,

Please find attached some files:

docs/en/script.js - based on rev. 7515 or so I believe: 3 new links to install.htm; zip renamed to script_en.zip
lang/spanish.zip - based on rev. 7527
docs/en/script.js - based on rev. 7535
docs/en/upgrading.htm - based on rev. 7495; not yet finished

I don't know if someone had these ideas (related to translation) before:
- Modify scritp.js so there's a language file properly defined, and a fallback method.
- Link / embed script.js to toc.htm so translators doesn't work twice

I'm focused on the translation, so I won't try anythig about them for several weeks (being optimistic; months, being realistic).

and last but nost least: is there any trick to know which are the differences between a file and the one I used as a base? Think about upgrading.htm, for instance: I can't compare the spanish version and the english one, since translation is a difference by itself, but knowing which paragraphs have been added/modified would be an advance.

Regards,
Title: Re: Spanish lang

Thanks for the update - changes went into rev 7541

3 new links to install.htm; zip renamed to script_en.zip
Hm, I'm not really sure why you attach so many files and go through such a huge effort to explain the file structure. Take a look at the zip archive I have attached: it contains exactly the same files you have added, but only within one archive. Looking at the archive you can see the structure pretty easily.

However: the file script.zip is broken for me (file size is zero) - I wasn't able to extract it's contents. Please re-attach!

I don't know if someone had these ideas (related to translation) before:
- Modify scritp.js so there's a language file properly defined, and a fallback method.
The file is already too big, consuming too many resources on older clients. Adding even more to it is not an option imo.
- Link / embed script.js to toc.htm so translators doesn't work twice
Not an option: search engine spiders will not take JS into account. The toc.htm file is the save fallback if JavaScript is not available for whatever reason. You don't have to update it frequently, but only before the actual release, using the output generated in your browser. If you don't know what I mean, don't worry: I'll take care of that.

Use a diff viewer like WinMerge (http://winmerge.org/) to figure out differences between files on your client. Use the diff viewer built-into the web svn to figure out differences between revisions (example link (http://coppermine.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/coppermine/trunk/cpg1.5.x/lang/english.php?r1=7193&r2=7421)). Alternatively, use the diff viewer built into your local svn app (assuming that you are using TortoiseSVN (http://tortoisesvn.tigris.org/) or a similar graphical client).

You're right - I agree that the file structure is much clearer, but it seems not so easy/fast for me to create it (specially here at work) if files are in several directories, using the tools I have.

Anyway, if this is an issue, tell me so and I'll manage.

Sorry! Don't know what happened. Here it is.

The file is already too big, consuming too many resources on older clients. Adding even more to it is not an option imo.

About time to render, I can confirm: we use IE6 here (don't ask nor laugh, please), and it takes more than 30s to display.

Here at work we had a 1Mb HTML file (nearly all the code was a JS script) that created nested tables up to 8 levels deep on the fly and took nearly 1 min. to render. But after creating just the 1st level, and populating only the nested table rows and cells the user clicked on,  it takes less than 1sec. I'll try to figure out if that idea can help here.


The toc.htm file is the save fallback if JavaScript is not available for whatever reason. You don't have to update it frequently, but only before the actual release, using the output generated in your browser. If you don't know what I mean, don't worry: I'll take care of that.

That sounded easy. I'm attaching toc.htm too. Hope that was the idea.

Use a diff viewer like WinMerge (http://winmerge.org/) to figure out differences between files on your client. Use the diff viewer built-into the web svn to figure out differences between revisions (example link (http://coppermine.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/coppermine/trunk/cpg1.5.x/lang/english.php?r1=7193&r2=7421)). Alternatively, use the diff viewer built into your local svn app (assuming that you are using TortoiseSVN (http://tortoisesvn.tigris.org/) or a similar graphical client).

Hmmm... No, I don't use that tools. Here we use UltraEdit (has a quite good diff viewer plugin), and I've just installed notepad++ at home (used to work with an old Ultraedit version). I'll try to manage with the svn diff viewer.

Upgrading.htm is finished. During the translation script.js (for spanish) and spanish.php were also modified. I didn't work on toc.htm  - I'd rather not work several times on it.

Well done again, thanks. Changes went into rev 7550.

That's perfectly OK. What I wanted to say above: you don't have to edit that file each time, but only before a release (i.e. once in a while) - that's fine. The file docs/en/toc.htm lags behind docs/en/script.js as well.
