Hello Jinji,

It would be great if you will translate the program to Hebrew.

However we know about some problems with program on RTL Windows. For example the menu of the program is displayed on the left side of the monitor where you have the Start menu.

In any case you could start adaptate the program for Jewish, so read this article: http://safelyremove.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=63, try to translate some strings from the program and see if they will be correctly displayed on your screen. Just note, the program supports only ANSI encoding, unicode isn't supported yet, so don't forget to switch to ANSI encoding in your editor. If everything goes well please send us the translation file and your notes regarding program behaviour on RTL version of Windows.

about 60% is done but my 30 days are over tomorrow

Post by jinji »

my progress was a little slow due to a very long holiday
and the fact that RTL language made a lot of mixups

some can have a workaround like writing the second half of a sentence
BEFORE the 1st half or writing the dots @ the begining insted of the end of a sentence

but some other cant - usualy those who involved english and hebrew at the same line,
it is still fixable if i'm not sticking to the software english name so i'm gonna flip all of them to hebrew

i think i'll need a registration key for the 4.1 Beta 2 to continue testing after tomorrow

reg key

Post by jinji »

got it thank you

i see that 4.1 Beta 3 is already out
i am asuuming the key will work for that too
but i'm gonna stick with 4.1b2 'till i done translating
and only than i'll switch to the latest beta and modify any changes

main problam with RTL languages:

when the text in Q got both - RTL and LTR text in it.

and worse - when the text in Q got both - RTL and LTR text in it AND it is long - more then 1 line.

it might be a good idea to allow unicode even if just 4 specific languages

Unfortunatelly it's impossible now, because there are many things in our source code must be changed. In future versions we will add support of unicode, but it will happen close to the end of this year.

rtl and ltr

i was explaning the main problem with RTL (Right to Left) Internationalization:
some time a sentence include both RTL (Right to Left) & LTR (Left to Right) an exemple is when the word USB is mentioned

when having a sentence like:
when pluging in a USB device etc..

and keeping the word USB in english but the rest in hebrew

it will screw the order of the words and if i'll translation back to english for you it will say somthing like:
device etc.. when plugin in a USB

(and i didn't even mention the alignment isue)

now that u say that unicode is out of the picture for the moment
i'll just write EVERY expression in hebrew even those who hard to swallow
like SATA etc...

so ... working on it in my free time when it is done i'll let you know

Just copying of files from e.g. flash drive to your hard drive or vice-versa. In common it's just copying of files.

the direction means where you want to copy files:
* from the device to a hard-drive
* or from the hard-drive to the device

Glad to hear hear that. Please send it to support@safelyremove.com and of course feel yourself free to ask me questions regarding the translation.

We have 2 types of bug-report windows which looks similar, but hadnles a bit different and has different required\optional fields:
1. Exception report window (when an error occured in the program). There user can optionally enter problem description.
2. Bug-report window (when a person wants to send us bug-report). In this case user has to enter problem description so here we have required field.

So I recommend you to just add the same phrase with "(optional)" ending and translate it.
