Re: [Jmol-users] Possibility to change language of Jmol applet directly

[Angel H. <ang...@ua...>]

Hi Martin:

I am also interested in this.

The information on my Wiki page is all I could gather regarding this 
topic. I guess this is more of a Java technical question, maybe you 
should direct your question to some Java discussion forum.

Which language are you interested in using?
I assume that the operating system is in another language that the 
one you want to use; Java should use the OS language automatically; 
is that not so?

Current Jmol applet localizations are ca, cs, es, et, fr, de, nl, pt, 
tr; if you want another language, there is nothing that Java can do; 
you need first to translate Jmol interface.

OK, I've done some reserach and found

Apparently, an applet interface language can be changed by using a 
<PARAM> tag.
I've tried to do this in Jmol (using jmolAppletAddParam to insert the 
additional param tag) but it is not working. I've tried "Lang", 
"user.language" and "language". Maybe one of the programmers can tell 
us if this will be feasible with Jmol, and what's the name of the 
param needed.
