Hi to All.

I have written a tool to convert any comments in any language in the source files to another language via google translate.





Operation

1. load a pb source file ( comments are automatically stripped form the file and copied to the clipboard
2. your browser is automatically opened at google translate page
3. click paste in the google translate page
4. process translation to the language of your choice
5. select highlight all the strings in the translation page and click copy
6. click the paste translated comments button in the app
7. original file is backed up and the new source file with the same name is created with the translated comments and opened in PB Ide
job done.

any comments requests etc welcome

adding more enhancements in next version

free to use

Good job! Thanks for sharing.
I tested the app on Mac with an emulator (virtual Box + Windows XP) and it runs fine.
Is it possible to port this to Mac, so it's running native with OS X?

[Zebuddi123]

Yes Possibly i have mac and linux too just dont use them much i`ll hook the mac up later today tomoz and recompile for mac and linux and post them

Google can't be good at "Chinese" because "Chinese" is a label affixed to a bucket full of different languages spoken throughout China

[IdeasVacuum]

It's true that China is a land of many languages, but there are only two official languages, Mandarin (all of China) and Cantonese (Hong Kong and Guanxi region).

I'll wait....
The app would be more perfectly, if it is able to translate the quoted strings too (see example)

Code: Select all

 Message$ + "Ligne: " + Str(XMLErrorLine(#XML)) + "   CaractÈre: " + Str(XMLErrorPosition(#XML))

MessageRequester("Information","Sauvegarde effectuÈe.")  

That is all strings in quotes, defined in vars or written in requester, are not converted yet.
Hope it's not a big problem.

... add for support .pbi | .txt | *.* file extensions ?

Hi IdeasVacuum

Yes I`am doing, just had a set back with some translations of the strings (Google translates a bugger for reordering some char`s about) going to remove some procedures (parts of) with strings from the translation

hope to make it modular with plugins for other languages C, C++ Java etc.

looking into possibly use translate api directly.

see where it develops from there.

Ps just finishing off my brothers "Laser Tattoo Removal --- Business software" then i will be concentrating on this full time as its only been done in bits and bobs so far.

I tested the app on Mac with an emulator (virtual Box + Windows XP) and it runs fine.

I still work on XP (32 bit) on a PC and it doesn't run here.
Any chance you compile it for XP (or open the source) ?

Thanks.
