Hi Tabitha, > XO-1.5 testing os373pyg

The answers are stored in text files, inside Speak.activity/bot/alice/*.aiml. Would anyone be interested in volunteering to strip out the concerning content and send a patch? > Words game - can only translate from English to other > languages. We wanted to translate from Spanish to English I think this is a UI misunderstanding (UI patches welcome) -- you can type a word in either of the two current languages, and it will show the translation for it. You don't have to tell it which direction you want to translate in before you type; it figures that out based on what the word was. > Also got some strange characters in the translation. Unfortunately the state of free translating dictionaries is not very good, so we often find markup and notes inside the translation field, or attempts at accents that didn't quite work. The translations are stored in Words.activity/lang/*.txt. > Words displays incorrect translation for words that are not in > the dictionary. It'll continue to show the last translation it had for the series of characters as you were typing, but won't put a translation up into the answer text box above. (It does this because it doesn't know when you've finished typing.) Thanks for the testing! - Chris. -- Chris Ball <[email protected]> One Laptop Per Child _______________________________________________ Testing mailing list [email protected] http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/testing
