translation required for every line in German at least

Code: Select all

LINE_1B_1="$(gettext 'Manual - MX Fluxbox')" 	> Handbuch - MX Fluxbox
LINE_1B_2="$(gettext 'Ctrl F1')" 		> Strg F1
LINE_1C_1="$(gettext 'Manual - MX Linux')" 	> Handbuch - MX Linux
LINE_1C_2="$(gettext 'Shift F1')" 		> Umschalt F1
LINE_1D_1="$(gettext 'MX-Tools')"		> MX-Werkzeuge
LINE_1D_2="$(gettext 'Ctrl F5')" 		> Strg F5
LINE_1E_1="$(gettext 'Screen Magnifier')" 	> Bildschirmlupe
LINE_1E_2="$(gettext 'Ctrl Alt M')" 		> Strg Alt M
LINE_1F_1="$(gettext 'Next Workspace')" 	> nächste Arbeitsfläche
LINE_1F_2="$(gettext 'Scroll Wheel Up')" 	> Mausrad nach oben
LINE_1F_3="$(gettext '   or')"			> oder
LINE_1F_4="$(gettext 'Ctrl Alt ')" 		> Strg Alt 
LINE_1G_1="$(gettext 'Previous Workspace')" 	> vorherige Arbeitsfläche
LINE_1G_2="$(gettext 'Scroll Wheel Down')" 	> Mausrad nach unten
LINE_1G_3=$(gettext '   or')" 			> oder
LINE_1G_4="$(gettext 'Ctrl Alt ')" 		> Strg Alt 

also the non-ascii characters throw up some errors for the translation stuff.
better like this?

Code: Select all

LINE_1E_2="$(gettext 'Ctrl Alt')M"
...
LINE_1F_4="$(gettext 'Ctrl Alt')"

Ok, good. And you will be able to restrict mxfb-keybindings to MX-23 or later, right?

having never seen a german keyboard, I presume then that "cntrl" and "alt" need translated?

which brings up a point, what about "F*" keys? I don't know what those look like in other languages, or how fluxbox works with other keyboards, but its worth checking. especially for slavic or non-european languages.

Ctrl > Strg
Shift > Umschalt
Del > Entf
Maybe it's only German that relabels the keys?

if they need relabeled they need relabeled. I have no idea, I have zero experience.

for the comment, instead of "commonly used" wouldn't these actually be "default shortcuts"?

I pushed up some changes for the comments, to illustrate sending instructions to the translators. I didn't do them all, just one block.

I think all the text at the top could be condensed some if using "default" rather than "common" everywhere. doesn't require the explainer that way.
