Applications / Re: ArcaOS 5.1 - First Impressions
« on: January 11, 2024, 06:12:56 pm »Thanks, found the start of that request with a file. I did respond back then and I was not actively busy with translating. Also I asked for the manual and for some reason it ended there. I can't recall what happened, sorry. I did open the file which was given by you and there is not much in it which can be translated, because a lot of things are the same in Dutch due to English influence in the language. But not all and certainly not a manual. So don't blame me for not responding, I did respond. Also translating is going totally different than most developers think it will go. Also they sometimes want that you translate in some kind of environment for which you have to download lot of programs which pollute your own computer and that is just for one program. Another program needs something else and so on. This is the reason I don't go to translate Libreoffice. They don't have a glue how that's going and are not willing to do it differently. For your information, Libreoffice is far larger then just one program, special there that I have to write a complete almost new manual, not only in Dutch, but also in English!. But then I will be busy for some years and almost daily. And I do it for free (I have already an income), so I want a little more respect and also communication when something is not clear or doesn't work (remind the "Y" in English, which is "J" in Dutch. Often overlooked. Have a nice day, thank you.Totally frozen, Dutch will be available with version 5.2, but they didn't mentioned which sub version. So I don't know if the hardware will last that long, I'm afraid that this is some kind of "goodbye". I have to wait at least for another year if not more. Also no translation requests received, so its firmly on the back-burner.[...] So, a lot of promises, with version 5.0 its promised, but no delivery. Not good. I'm not sure if I'm willing to translate with this knowledge.
If there's anyone to blame for this situation, it's your fellow countrymen.
For years I've been looking for a Dutch translator for XWP and haven't found one. For v1.0.14, I had to crowd-source my Dutch translations from people here on os2world. Sadly, they haven't been seen here since the pandemic, so I suspect they're no longer with us. So, who's left? If I can't get someone to translate 20-30 phrases every year or two, how can you expect AN to turn out something far, far larger? It seems unrealistic.
, sorry for that). The program works in Java 11 and it does work also in our Java 6. I was afraid that our system might be to alien, but no, all fonts are listed. And as you can see in the picture it also find our clipboard. 
. I probably can upload above packages to Hobbes /pub/java, but can I also upload it strait to where it should be available or is only /pub/java available for "outsiders"?
