Re: gTranslate - a client for Google Translate

New version with bugfixes is now available in Extras-devel!

Re: gTranslate - a client for Google Translate

I've updated to version from Extras-devel. When there's no internet connection, gTranslate closes when I touch "Translate" button. And as someone already said, it'd be nice if gTranslate could keep last chosen languages as default.

Excellent - quick Q though - can you copy text from a translation? Makes for easier email replying etc :)

Ok, I'm going to add a copy button. In this version you can use Ctrl+A and Ctrl+C. :)

The only suggestion I have is that when I go to either "source language" or "target language", that my most used languages come up first.

great app- i love the simplicity.

Thanks! I'm not sure if I'm going to add that feature. But I'm going to add the feature to remember the last used languages.

N800, N810 ports ?

incompatibility issues

If someone is interested to port and test gTranslate for those versions I can provide the source code. Personally I haven't got any devices with those versions of Maemo. :(

My internet connection is set to "Always ask", so for example, when I click "Update" in the app manager, I get list of available connections. I think such behaviour would be good for gTranslate when I press "translate".
Anyway, thanks for this simple but useful program. :)

Re: gTranslate - a client for Google Translate

Can you add a button to quicly swap languages?It's already on the web page of Google translator and it's very handy IMO.
Thank you for your consideration and congratulations for your work:)

Please post the code somewhere (garage project, forum attachment, or other means) and I'm sure someone interested will do it.

I may try to port it if I can find the time. I haven't even gotten around to trying the N900 version yet! :eek:

I would also find this feature extremely useful.

Simple -- queue up the desired translations for later when connectivity is present. That way I can be reading a book in French in FBReader, pop a phrase into gTranslate that I am unsure of, and then see the result 20 minutes later when I am back to a place where I have signal.

This is clearly not as nice as an immediate translation, but still VERY useful.

Odd, I was expecting this to be a failure of Google translate, but when I tested in using the normal Google translate page, "lemon" was translated...
