How to Translate

Different language translation have the same process, so I'll just take translating to English as example.

First make sure you have pyside2 installed by executing pip install pyside2

If you are on Windows, run create_ts.bat, it will read the config from project.pro, and then generate a en.ts file, which can be opened by Linguist .

After installing PySide2, the Linguist is also installed, you just run linguist in command line, it will launch.

Use Linguist to open en.ts, and then translate the items:

After translating each item, don't forget to click the √ to tell Linguist that this item translation is complete, and most importantly, add it to the dictionary en.qph by pressing Ctrl + T .

The next time QuickCut commits, you may need to run create_ts.bat again, the en.ts will be updated, but the translation inside of it will also be deleted.

You can use the dictionary en.qph (which you have added translated items to it) to quickly fill blanks by using Linguist's batch translation:

After that, use Linguist to generated a en.qm which is the final language file can be load by QuickCut.py

When your translation is finished, you can pull a request to the QuickCut. Or send an email to 1292756898@qq.com
