KnightOS Translation Project
« on: October 14, 2012, 07:52:05 pm »
Hello!

As you may have seen on tiplanet.org, SirCmpwn is working again on KnightOS.

(Please, don't talk about SirCmpwn, talk about KnightOS...)


There's an effort to translate KnightOS into various languages.

On TI Planet, we are working to translate it in french, but if you would have your KnightOS in your langage, you can translate it yourself now :)

I personnally make the charset with him, and we have incorpored accentued letters like "é", "à", etc...

You can read the translation guide here: https://github.com/SirCmpwn/KnightOS/blob/master/TRANSLATION.md

 If you are interested in, SirCmpwn can create a special tree for your langage, and you are free to fork this tree to translate it. :)

Thanks for your help.

That is nice to hear that it's still active. I heard that it was a while ago but I wasn't sure how much. Glad there will be a French translation. Will it be problematic to translate before completion, though? I am concerned that if most stuff constantly changes that it will be a lot more work to start translating it before it's finished or in beta stages than it would be if the translation started once KOS is finished and guaranteed to not have signifiant vocabulary changes anymore.

Yeah I heard, first SirCmpwn temporarly hopped on IRC to say the project's still alive a while ago (yeah he's banned, but as persalteas said, please don't talk about this, but the project), then it made the news on TI-Planet... So yeah, glad to hear it's not dead.

* shmibs agrees.
seeing a complete third-party OS is the last big thing that still hasn't been completed for the 8x series.

I remember how KOS looked, and to me I felt like it was too graphical for the TI series.  But it is nice that is being worked on.  I'd still like to see OS2 be completed (or even worked on).

We are tranlating the kernel only, the big menu, the settings menu, etc...

All Programs for KOS are still indev, we don't translate them (the calendar, maybe a program interpreter, linking, etc...)
In 1 hour Adriweb has finished the french translation, to show you it's very fast.

So, anybody for German, Spanish,  japanese, klingoln ? (You may add chars in the character set, no problem :D )

I can do/help with Spanish. No Klingon, though, sorry. Do you have a link to the article on TI Planet ? Ah, the most recent post. I really have no idea how to use these sorts of sites, though, (i have no idea what a pull request is, for example) but i can provide the translations.

The principal author (SirCmpwn) has his files uploaded on his account.

You can copy those files to YOUR account by clicking the button "Fork" when you are on his page.

Then, you can modify files in your account.
When it's done, click the "pull request" button to indicate him you want to merge your code with his code.

You should verify that he hasn't made any update between the moment you forked and the moment you want to merge the codes.

SirCmpwn can accept or not to merge, and changes are applied.

How do i ask questions about what exactly is meant? For example, "Running Programs" can be either a list of programs that are running: "Programas ejecutándose" or a state: "Ejecutando programas". I've finished translating everything (to anyone else thinking about it: it's really not much, it took me maybe ten minutes).

EDIT: So first he needs to add an "Es" folder before i can upload the translations?
EDIT2: Translation attached.

There is probably an old topic floating around here somewhere. I'm pretty sure it was also hosted on googlecode or something similar, but I don't have a link. You could also check on TI-Planet, as it seems there is some discussion going on about it there.
