StarLogo TNG Translation Management Page 

 

Suggestions to create the translated pages:

Many of the pages have graphic images embedded in the pages.  Here is how we can easily preserve those images AND also translate the page:

 

1. To try to bring some standards to naming the pages, we will use shortened URLs with consistent naming qualities.  If you are a user of FireFox, drag this URL http://www.tiny.cc/ into your tool bar
2. I suggest using http://www.google.com/translate_t  It is quite an amazing program with a fairly high degree of linguistic accuracy.  Amazingly, it will also automatically

   translate the pages in links below whatever page you are translatting.

3. Copy the URL of the page to be translated
4. Go to the Google Translate page at http://www.google.com/translate_t
5. At the bottom of this page, paste in the URL and tell the program to translate into

 

HOW TO - Upload a File

1. Place your cursor where you would like to attach the file
2. Click 'Attach File' in the edit bar
3. Select the file
4. Click upload
5. Once the file apears, click OK

 

Key questions to be answered:

1. Given the power of Google Translation, one might ask, "Do we need to translate the StarLogo TNG manual?"  Yes, at least parts of it that can be printed because our Cuban colleagues generally do not have access

   to the Internet, and if they do, it is quite slow.  So we have to provide some ink-on-paper material.

2. Do we need to translate the labels on the StarLogo menus and buttons?  Probably not because they are going to need them in their native form when it comes to programming.
