[dabo-users] Dabo on non-English (Japanese) systems

2010-08-05 Thread Laurence Anthony
Earlier, Ed wrote in reply to a comment

 I changed the Windows language setup to English and both Dabo and Dabo  
 Runtime are working.
Well, at least that identifies the problem, but it's not a very good 
solution. Just because Paul and I only use American English settings doesn't  
mean everyone else should have to, too.

I have the same problem that I cannot launch the  Dabo Runtime on my
Japanese Windows 7 box (I haven't tried the full Dabo install yet).
Can someone give me suggestions on how to get it working (hopefully
without having to switch the OS into an English locale)?

Thanks,
Laurence.

Minimally copy Dabo's English locale to Japanese.
Better help preparing a real Japanese translation at

Hraban,

 https://translations.launchpad.net/dabo

And how do I go about copying Dabo's English locale to Japanese? I
looked in the locale folder and found the en folder. Where should I
copy this too?

Laurence.

Just copy the en folder as jp (or the right code, look it up),  
then you'll at least be able to use an English dabo on your Japanese  
system.
Can't promise that it'll work - never tried it, but there were reports  
on this list about other locales where this worked.

Hi again,

 Just copy the en folder as jp (or the right code, look it up)

I'm not sure what Look it up means here. I tried jp but it didn't
work. In the end, I went into dLocalize.py in the Daba Runtime
directory and changed the following line:
56: setLanguage(_defaultLanguage, _defaultEncoding)
to
56: setLanguage('en', 'utf8')

Everything then worked. Looking deeper, both _defaultLanguage and
_defaultEncoding were returning a blank. Obviously, forcing 'en' and
'utf8' by hacking dLocalize.py is not the best solution. Does anybody
have a better solution? It seems to me that the localized script being
used is broken for every OS in the world except those listed
explicitly below, which is a shame.
_languageAliases = {english: en, English_United States:en,
spanish: es, espanol: es, español: es,
french: fr, francais: fr, français: fr,
german: de, deutsch: de,
italian: it, italiano: it,
portuguese: pt, portuguése: pt,
russian: ru}
