Hebrew bind file
Hi, I tried to switch the Hebrew bind file on the lyx wiki (see: http://wiki.lyx.org/Windows/Hebrew and http://wiki.lyx.org/uploads/Windows/Hebrew/he_cua.bind), but I saw that a password is needed. I would appreciate if someone could upload the attached file instead of the old one (the new one is better in the regard that it links to the cua bind file instead of having it all inside the Hebrew bind file). Furthermore, is it possible to have the file delivered with lyx instead of having users download it manualy? Sincerely, Ran Rutenberg cua_he.bind Description: Binary data
Hebrew Intro.lyx and he.po file for 1.5.6
Hi, Attached are links to the updates for the Hebrew Intro.lyx and he.po. I had some trouble sending the files in the past three days (maybe they are too large), and I hope I'm not too late. The he.po file is available from: https://rcpt.yousendit.com/592689755/6dbdd07cc42c8 bfa88670ae79d553a85 The Intro.lyx is available from: https://rcpt.yousendit.com/592689849/b559d3ddabbc4 f23a7bd9a46b154b571 Sincerely, Ran Rutenberg
Hebrew LyX Site
Hi, I've opened a small site, which has explanations on what is LyX in Hebrew, and how to set up LyX in Hebrew. I will be glad if someone can post this site on the LyX site as the homepage of the Hebrew translation. http://hebrew.lyx.googlepages.com/home Sincerely, Ran Rutenberg
Obsolete information in the FAQ?
Hi, In sub-section 1.4 it is written that LyX needs XServer in order to have it work on a Windows machine. As far as I can remember I didn't install any XServer software when I installed LyX on a windows machine. Is this information provided in the FAQ.lyx is correct regarding the newer versions of LyX? I see that this FAQ was written originally for version 1.0. Sincerely, Ran Rutenberg
Re: Problem testing translation
Hi, After much work I've isolated the string that is causing the trouble. The string id is 3569. The string itself is "[[Replace with the code of your language]]". No matter what I'm writing as a translation (I even tried to omit the square brackets) I'm getting the error I've described. If I don't translate the string the error disappears. I hope someone can help me get around this problem.

Problem testing translation
Hi, I wanted to test a new he.po file, but since compiling it with today's svn and installing I can't make it work. It is probably something that I changed in the .po file in the last week. When trying to launch LyX the following error appears: Assertion triggered in const std::string lyx::to_ascii(const lyx::docstring&) by failing check "ucs4[i] < 0x80" in file docstring.cpp:55 Aborted (core dumped) I would appreciate it greatly if you would assist me knowing what went wrong in the .po file and how to solve it.

Untranslatable Strings in LyX
Hi, I've noticed that I even if I translate the "Revert to Saved" string in the po file the translation doesn't show up in the program itself (File>Revert to Saved). The same problem happens in the View menu. If you open LyX without opening any document and open the View menu there are two "No Documents Open!". I can translate the upper one, but the bottom one keeps appearing in English. Did anyone else encounter this problem? Sincerely, Ran Rutenberg

Re: [patch] Hebrew Splash doc
On 5/19/07, Uwe Stöhr <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Can I commit it?: Of course - that's what I wished. Ran, one question: Is it necessary to use the same note behind the word "LyX"? Unfortunately, yes. There is a bug, which exists at least from 2003 (I know that by examining old Hebrew files) that the direction of the paragraph is set according to the first character. Therefore, when I need to start a paragraph with the name LyX I have to insert a note which is written in Hebrew.

Hebrew bind file
Hi, As for now there is no bind file that enables Hebrew Users to easily switch the language between Hebrew and English and vise versa that comes with the LyX distribution. I would like to know if it possible to add the attached file to the distribution and if it possible to make it the default one when using LyX in Hebrew. This file is based on the file that exists in the wiki, with an added line that enables to switch the language back to English. I couldn't upload the file to the wiki ( http://wiki.lyx.org/Windows/Hebrew ), so I would be glad if someone could replace the cuaHeb.bind file that exists there with the modified one.

Menu Separator in the Hebrew documentation.
Hi, The Documentation Project Style Sheet states the one should use the menu separator character when referring to menus. Alas, this character is good only for LTR languages and is not suitable to RTL languages (see: bug 3560<http://bugzilla.lyx.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3560>) . I thought about overcoming this problem using the vartriangleleft character from the AMS Relations. Is this okay? Sincerely, Ran Rutenberg

New he.po
Hi, I've finished translating large part (about 36%) of the LyX interface into hebrew. This new translation includes an almost complete translation of the menus (there is a term or two that are not translated yet) and partial translation of the dialogs. This translation, at its current state should suffice for those who want to work with LyX but know only Hebrew. I hope I will be able to complete the translation soon.

Changing the language of the UI
Dear Developers an Translators, I have installed Linux on my computer and compiled LyX 1.5 successfully with it (my earlier attempts to compile it on windows did not work so well). However I tried to run LyX with the option "LC_MESSAGES=he" but the only difference from the normal UI was that the file in the help menu were in the Hebrew files (that is the he.intro etc.). How can I make LyX use the he.po file? Alas, without being able to see my translation from time to time, I can make only small progress... Sincerely, Ran Rutenberg

Technical Help Needed About Translating the LyX UI
Dear Translators, I would like to start translating the LyX UI into Hebrew, but I ran into some problems. I tried to open the he.po file using a software called poEdit (I am running Windows XP) but I get an error that says "Failed to convert file contents to Unicode". Since I have no previous experience with the .po files, I will be glad if someone could give me some instructions on how to open them and edit them (if it is possible even to start the translation from the beginning, either the 1.4 UI or the 1.5 UI).

The Hebrew translation of the LyX documents
Dear sirs, I have recently contacted Mr. Tzafrir Cohen, in order to help with the Hebrew translation of the document, which is quite old (the translation is dated back to 2002 and obviously the program had been updated since). Mr. Cohen wrote to me back that he does not maintain the Hebrew translation anymore. I would be more than happy to assist with the translation, and therefore, I would be glad I you can contact Mr. Cohen and if he is willing, I will be able to replace him as the head translator into Hebrew. I would like to mention that Hebrew is my native-language and I'm also fluent in English as well. Sincerely, Ran Rutenberg [EMAIL PROTECTED]
