Widget translation. Bilinguals read this.

Hey everyone

I've been building a battery status dashboard widget (mephisto has been doing the graphics) and I want to get a few localizations in it before general release. Thankfully, I only need a few words for it! Can anyone who speaks a language other than english please post a translation of the following phrases (stating what language it is!):

1. "Update every:"

2. "sec(s)" --> As in an abbreviation of "second(s)"

3. "Show percentage charge"

4. "Done"

Thanks to anyone who can help. If a few people can add to this topic soon, the widget will be out tomorrow.

EDIT: Oh yeah, It'd also be good to have "_language_name_ Localized Strings" for the file title.

Thanks Seph, I'll add the spanish and catalan. If a second opinion on the italian one comes up, I'll add that too.

@Timmie - I could use babelfish, but if you don't know the language, how do you know if it's giving the right translation?

Simple you use the translation it gives, and translate it backto english

German:

1. "Aktualisierung alle:"

2. "sek"

3. "Zeige Ladestatus" / "Zeige Ladestatus in Prozent" ( second one would be more accurate but rather uncommon)

4. "Fertig"

#281378

4. Fatto

(someone else oughta double check the italian one, i might not be using the right slang)

Fatto would be done, presto would be listo? presto is more like "ready" so duno which one is better

#281398

French:

1-Mettre à jour chaque (or ''mise à jour tout..)

2-sec(s)

3-Montrer le niveau de charge (or just ''niveau de charge)

4-fini (or ''terminé'')

Thanks everyone for those translations!

Once I get into uni this morning I'll upload the widget. This release will have the Spanish, Catalan, German and French localizations. Once somebody has confirmed the Italian as being accurate I'll add that to a later release.

If anyone wants to keep adding translations, feel free as they will be added at a later point.

@ dreadnaut:

Suits me! I'm getting a bit fed up with having to make sure I save everything in UTF-8. Widgets don't seem to like mixing html entities and javascript.

Hehehe, Italian is cool cause you can either accentuate letters or not, they couldnt care less - In spanish and catalan they will hit you with a shovel if you dont :confused:

Dreadnaut, thanks for the "local" view, i have never used an italian program - E l'italiano lo parlo da solo 8 mesi fa :slant:, grazie per la correzione

#281584

Another request:

Can someone with a desktop-based mac (ie, one *without* a battery and preferably Tiger, but panther will be OK) run the following command in the terminal and post the results here please?

/usr/sbin/ioreg -p IODeviceTree -n battery -w 0 | /usr/bin/grep Battery
