Hello,
A "Keys and mouse reference" translation system is available in the
inkscape-docs project as of revision 385 (see
https://code.launchpad.net/inkscape-docs).
The new keys.xml has been almost entirely docbookified in order to make its
conversion to PO easier, and the resulting HTML file is slightly different than
the current one (new external CSS, some style changes, and strict XHTML 1.0). I
didn't wanted to change its aspect too drastically, and thus only fine-tuned
some styles in order to (hopefully!) improve the overall readability on most
browsers (tested with Opera 10.63, IE8 and Firefox 3.6.10 on Windows XP, and
Firefox 3.6.10 on Ubuntu 10.04). Don't hesitate to comment.
To add a new translation, copy keys.pot (from
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~inkscape.dev/inkscape-docs/trunk/files/head%...)
to LANG.po, translate (only 939 strings...), and attach the PO file to a bug
report, send it to the translators' list, or commit it if you have the
appropriate rights. Then update the UI translation file to redirect the link to
the new HTML file on the website.
BTW, we currently use keysVERSION.html (keys048.html) and thus it would be
straightforward to use keysVERSION.LANG.html (keys049.sk.html...). But we could
also choose keys-VERSION-LANG.html (keys-049-ja.po).
Any preference? or another idea?
Regards.

Thanks for this, Nicolas. Good job!
Can you please convert the man page source to .po format as well? You
can use po4a: http://po4a.alioth.debian.org/ And please update
http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/DocumentationTranslation#Manual_p...
Can you please convert the NSH files for the Inkscape's Windows
installer to .po format? Right now is very difficult to translate and
update.

Can you please convert the XML sources of Inkscape's user manual to
.po format in order to ease its translation? Please update
http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/DocumentationTranslation#User_Manual
as well.
Thanks and bye,

I remember there was a problem with the man page I translated to
Slovak - characters in UTF8 weren't displayed properly. I remember
there was a French translation, too, but don't remember if accented
characters displayed properly - or if it used iso-8859-1 as opposed to
utf-8.
OK, I just found my mail with a description of the problem:

Subject: Inkscape manual page translations
To: Josh Andler <scislac@...5...>
Hello,
I believe you're the release warden for 0.47. Can you help me with the
following issue?
I translated the inkscape.pod file to Slovak and I'd like to see it
included in 0.47.
1) I'm not sure where to add it so it will build (because I don't
understand autotools very well)
2) I can't get it to build correctly and I have this problem with the
existing French manpage, too
I tried it on Ubuntu 9.04:
pod2man -u --center=Inkscape inkscape.sk.pod > inkscape.sk.1
man -l inkscape.sk.1
With the -u option it munges the non-ASCII characters, without it it
adds A~X sequences.
When I did a normal make, inkscape.fr.1 was created but this has the
same problem - note the A~X sequences. I noticed the utf8-to-roff
filter in the makefile but I don't know how to use it. Anyway it seems
it's used for the French file in the makefile so it probably doesn't
work.

Initial PO support for the man files (via pod files) committed in inkscape-docs,
revision 431.
Now I have to investigate the characters issue with make. Apparently, using
"pod2man --utf8" with the generated pod files gives a perfect result (only
tested with the French translation).
Regards.

It doesn't look too difficult. I'll take a look.

Should work with po4a too.
Can you please convert the XML sources of Inkscape's user manual
to
.po format in order to ease its translation? Please update

as well.
Well, the wiki really needs an update...
The docbook Inskcape User Manual is no longer maintained. It was replaced in
2009 with an online manual on FlossManuals (http://en.flossmanuals.net/).
Translation is possible, but the UI is not very convenient (the new booki
project, currently work in progress, should bring some new tools). Please use
the related mailing list (Discuss@...274...) for details.
Regards.
