Need translation help
by Darrell Anderson 02 Feb '12

02 Feb '12

I am revising and updating the Trinity documentation. In tdebase/khelpcenter/plugins/ is a desktop file named userguide.desktop. That file is used to create the table of contents in the Help Center. Although minor, the file is inconsistent with terminology used everywhere else in TDE. AS IS: Name=KDE Users' Manual CHANGE TO: Name=TDE User Guide Changing KDE to TDE is straightforward as well as changing the English text. The challenge is updating all of the other languages to "TDE User Guide." If somebody wants to help with the documentation and is familiar with using various language translation tools, would you please consider updating this file? I would be much grateful for the help. Thank you! Darrell

Qt4 tools compatibility
by L0ner sh4dou 02 Feb '12

02 Feb '12

I know that there were some changes in this filed with the introduction of TQt with already translated Q* objects to QT*. But I have I noticed on my system another thing having both qt3.3.8d and qt4.8.0 installed and I don't know if there are movements to resolve this. Qt provides set of tools that enable creation of qt-based applications. Those are: assistant, designer, linguist , lrelease, lupdate, moc, qmake, qtconfig, uic. Those are provided both by qt4 and our qt3. If I have both of the qt versions installed and I try to run one of those applications, only the qt4 versions are launched, and I am unable to launch qt3 ones unless i specify full path to them as command. That may be because I installed qt4 as second, and if I were to install it first and then qt3 then I'd be able to start only those provided by qt3. If I run those commands through whereis I get: assistant: /usr/bin/assistant /opt/qt/bin/assistant designer: /usr/bin/designer /opt/qt/bin/designer linguist: /usr/bin/linguist /opt/qt/bin/linguist lrelease: /usr/bin/lrelease /opt/qt/bin/lrelease lupdate: /usr/bin/lupdate /opt/qt/bin/lupdate moc: /usr/bin/moc /opt/qt/bin/moc qmake: /usr/bin/qmake /opt/qt/bin/qmake qtconfig: /usr/bin/qtconfig /opt/qt/bin/qtconfig Obviously, if I invoke assistant, the first path is executed. As a temporary solution for my packages I create links to the qt3 tools in $prefix/bin/ and name them in the Qt3* scheme. Anyway I think those should be renamed in the TQt3 to avoid collisions with Qt4 ones.

Need artwork help
by Darrell Anderson 01 Feb '12

01 Feb '12

Would one of you artists lend a hand in updating a PNG image file: tdelibs/doc/common/kde_logo.png We need to retain the same attributes (size, depth, etc.) but update the image to reflect Trinity. This image is used primarily in the web version of the help files, but is used in a few other places. When finished, please submit the updated image to bug report 694. Thanks! Darrell

K-Menu or T-Menu
by Darrell Anderson 01 Feb '12

01 Feb '12

As I revise and update the Trinity documentation, I will confront questions I can't answer, or should not answer on my own without team opinions. The documentation often refers to the K-Menu. The Trinity artwork contains a "T" button icon rather than a K. Should we refer to this button as the T-Menu? I lean toward updating all documentation to reference the T-Menu despite some of the underlying app and library names. For example, kmenueditor. Many TDE apps still use the "k" prefix and so this would not be any different. Yet I think T-Menu is more consistent with "Trinity Desktop Environment." Objections? Darrell
