how to translate shell extensions / cinnamon ??
Posted: Wed Nov 30, 2011 5:09 pm
Hello everybody !!
It would be nice to have the new MintMenu (for example) translated in different languages.
I'm from germany, in MintMenu the different application categories are translated into german.
Only "All Applications" and "Places" are not in german.
So I went to the gnome-shell extension folder opened the extension.js-file of MintMenu.
These words are hard coded in the file, I translated them to german, looks good now.
And I got problems with german special letters "Umlaute" in the file, too - No way to get them display in the right way !?
Tried html-codes from here: http://www.designerzone.de/webdesign-ti ... -liste.php
And when there will be an update of the extension, what's then ?
The same with the windowlist extension.
Left click (minimize, maximize, close) ... the same, hard coded in the extension.js file.
I put in the german words, but again, what's about an update ? Do I have to translate it over and over again ??
.... so please there have to be a right way to translate shell extensions !!!??
Greetings,
Oliver
