[bt-devel] Map for translating documents.

[Fred Saalbach]

Map for translating documents.

po files created from existing bibletime documents are imported into the
kbable translation database (these are the files included in
docs/bibletime1-0poFiles.zip.  Additional material can be imported into
the kbable translation database from existing po files available for
download at kde.i18n.org

now open a **.po file and do a rough translation.

See if the results make sense.  If you want to know what I mean by make
sense, take any phrase in your native language, translate it into
another by way of altavista - bablefish, and then back into your native
language.  This often results in nonsense.  Kbable can do this also if
it does not find the prevous translation of the paragraph in question,
and tries to guess or do single word translation. 

If the results are good, process these po files into docbook.xml and
then into html.

for the detailed instructions, see

-- 
II Chronicles 7:14 (The Webster Bible)
If my people, who are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and
pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I
hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.

Luther Bible
Und mein Volk sich demütigt, das nach meinem Namen genannt ist, daß sie
beten und mein Angesicht suchen und sich von ihren bösen Wegen bekehren
werden: so will ich vom Himmel hören und ihre Sünde vergeben und ihr
Land heilen.

Spanish Reina-Valera Bible
Si se humillare mi pueblo, sobre los cuales ni nombre es invocado, y
oraren, y buscaren mi rostro, y se convirtieren de sus malos caminos;
entonces yo oiré desde los cielos, y perdonaré sus pecados, y sanaré su
tierra.
