If you'd like to share it with us, I'd be happy to include the updates in the next release of the stamps. (Looking at 'tuxpaint-stamps-nl.po', it looks like it hasn't been updated since 2004-July-29!) > http://fotoalbum.seniorennet.be/incl/getimage2.php?imageid=1449817&albumid=18832&typeid=4 > > If the bitmap hereunder does not show up on your screen, the link above > should give it in your browser.

The PO file for the application itself was updated more recently (2009-07-20, shortly after the last version of Tux Paint was released). Both of the "Yes, I'm done" and "No, take me back!" strings appear to be translated. I can confirm that that dialog looks right in the version I'm running from CVS right now. > The matter is not really important but thanks for your attention. And > thanks for this fine program. Since this particular issue has come up a few times, what happened was the original string (from 2002!), "Yes, I'm done!", was updated to include a true apostrophe (a small "9" shaped mark, versus the straight up-and-down ASCII). Locales that were not updated since that change will have that string marked as "Fuzzy", since the gettext system is no longer sure the translation makes sense. (In this case, it does, since it was a simple change to the punctuation style.) This causes the translation to not show up, though. By the way, when you go to edit PO files for Tux Paint, please use the files from the CVS repository, as they will be the most current. (Sometimes it will be hard to test them, unless you are also running Tux Paint built from the source code in the CVS repository.) This page directs you to the CVS repository info; you can fetch everything using a CVS command-line or GUI tool on your computer, or simply download individual files via a web interface: http://www.tuxpaint.org/download/source/cvs/ Also, for convenience, the following web page is kept relatively current to what's in CVS, and includes pretty graphs to show the 'completeness' of each translation: http://www.tuxpaint.org/help/po/ Thanks! -bill! |
