OK, will try and make a PR in the next few days. Kinda busy atm and for the next few weeks.
I also wanted to make a couple of small adjustments to font and look if we're going to make a new accessories package...

That's fine, I'm in no hurry. I will be leaving the country in a couple of days for 2+ weeks without my laptop so won't be able to do anything about it anyway.

We should get the translations going ASAP though, even if you have code changes to make, because I believe they are finished..

PR made to mxfb-accessories.
@Jerry3904 I included a .desktop file with empty translations. Maybe a post asking for translations in the translations forum?
@dolphin_oracle I have no idea how to upload the script to transifex for translation. Could you upload it when you have time?

if you put the name and comment strings in the script, then we can get the translations for the desktop file from that. easier that way

Thanks. I'm reviewing now, will do that and get it up before I leave.
--Any problem if I update the mxfb-settings.list as well to include this, and add mxfb-keybindings as a dependency?
--I guess this will be for MX-23 only, since some of those bindings are new.

@Melber OK with you if I change the desktop file name to "Shortcuts"? That's what will show up in Settngs manager and the change will match the others in there. (File name will remain mxfb-keybindings, as you have it.)

@Melber I just saw your question on Slack, so will wait for an updated script from you.

@Jerry3904 since the new script is in the mxfb-accessories git repo, I just assumed the script would be part of that package. If that's the case, then no need to add a depend because it will come with the package anyway.

@Jerry3904 Do you mean rename mxfb-keybindings.desktop to shortcuts.desktop or just to change Name=Shortcuts in the .desktop file?

please review this area, as it seems to me many things do not need translated.

Code: Select all

#Translator Note#
#Please keep translated strings as short as possible#
#to avoid messing up the formatting#

LINE_1B_1="$(gettext 'Manual - MX Fluxbox')"
LINE_1B_2="$(gettext 'Ctrl F1')"
LINE_1C_1="$(gettext 'Manual - MX Linux')"
LINE_1C_2="$(gettext 'Shift F1')"
LINE_1D_1="$(gettext 'MX-Tools')"
LINE_1D_2="$(gettext 'Ctrl F5')"
LINE_1E_1="$(gettext 'Screen Magnifier')"
LINE_1E_2="$(gettext 'Ctrl Alt M')"
LINE_1F_1="$(gettext 'Next Workspace')"
LINE_1F_2="$(gettext 'Scroll Wheel Up')"
LINE_1F_3="$(gettext '   or')"
LINE_1F_4="$(gettext 'Ctrl Alt ')"
LINE_1G_1="$(gettext 'Previous Workspace')"
LINE_1G_2="$(gettext 'Scroll Wheel Down')"
LINE_1G_3="$(gettext '   or')"
LINE_1G_4="$(gettext 'Ctrl Alt ')"
also the non-ascii characters throw up some errors for the translation stuff.

I'm pushing up a couple of changes to the setup, but not the app itself. So be sure to sync up your git repos before doing anything.

also, please add the translator comments on lines just before strings that are to be translated. the blanket comment in the script will never be seen unless the script is opened up. so one string, on comment.

Just Name=Shortcuts in the file, thanks
