Hello *,
For some times I have read a reauest on <debian-x> (I think) and...
I am Debian GNU/Linux Consultant between France, Germany, Moroco,
Turkey and Iran and have localized some X applications (on demand of my
custoers) while modifying the Xresources and puting them into
/etc/X11/C/
/etc/X11/de
/etc/X11/fr
In the same time I have the trist looking black-n-white dialogs
colorized.
I have uploaded a testpackage to <mentors.debian.net>:
* Package name : tdapp-defaults-l10n
Version : 0.0.3
Upstream Author : Michelle Konzack <linux4michelle@freenet.de>
* URL : http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/t/tdapp-defaults-l10n
SRC repository : deb-src http://mentors.debian.net/debian unstable main
dget : http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/t/tdmenu/tdapp-defaults-l10n_0.0.3-2.dsc
* License : Artistic
Section : x11
Description : This package give the x-window-system tools
.
editres, xfontsel, xterm, xcolorsel and xman
.
a new look and feel with a light blue color and localized in
.
de and fr
.
more languages will be added in the future hopefully.
I have encontered that "editres" is broken but it will be hopefully
solved in the next days.
My idea is, not only to localize the Xresources but colorize them too.
I am working on crating a system which use packages like
tdapp-defaults-l10n-common
with depends on (one or more)
tdapp-defaults-l10n-lang (Virtual Package)
tdapp-defaults-l10n-de
tdapp-defaults-l10n-fr
...
and depends on ONE of
tdapp-defaults-l10n-color (Virtual Package)
tdapp-defaults-l10n-dummy (used if no colors are desired)
tdapp-defaults-l10n-lightblue
...
Since at least one of the *-lang and *-color are required,
#include "..." can not be broken.
Currently I am creating a testpackage of it but I do not know, when it
is ready since it reauires heavy timeconsuming york with "editres" to
get all reqired resource strings.
The files are generaly (e.g. xman):
/etc/X11/C/Xman (include only the Xman-real)
Xman-color (use the color stuff and include Xman)
Xman-real (real Xman resources)
/etc/X11/de/Xman (include only the Xman-real)
Xman-color (is a SYMLINK to /etc/X11/C/Xman-color)
Xman-real (is a SYMLINK to /etc/X11/C/Xman-real)
the SYMLINKS are neccesary since "#include" require the files in the
same directory as the called Xresource.
Any comments are welcome.
Thanks, Greetings and nice Day
