I was updating pd-extended.git, so I threw in the new Japanese translation :-). I'll be sure to update it one last time before the final release, so you can test it in a real build.
I'm all for choice with the language of the app, but it seems to me that is something that the OS should handle. So anyone who set their system language to English will get Pd-extended in English. For those who want some mix of languages, then there is no standard technique that I know of, and how you do it varies on each OS. If someone wants to code this for Pd-extended, patches are welcome. For the geeks, you can select the language easily when launching Pd from the terminal. This is what I do for testing the language support: $ export LANG=en $ /usr/bin/pd-extended or on Mac OS X: $ /Applications/Pd-extended/Contents/Resources/bin/pd You can see the supported languages in the po/ folder inside Pd. .hc On 02/23/2012 11:54 PM, Seiichiro MATSUMURA wrote: > Thanks. > I finished Transifex work in Japanese 100%.
