What is Reddit's opinion of Translate Shell?

From 3.5 billion Reddit comments

There's also a Github page if you want more information about it.

I've just used it to auto-generate all the non-english locale strings for the .desktop files - used for my Gentoo Wine packages...

It's an amazing powerful / useful utility :-)

Have been using vim's spell checker for several languages (including 3 of those mentioned by you) without any problem... the only issue I have is with Japanese, but it is probably out of the scope of this thread. The only configuration regarding spell checking in my init.vim are some mappings to toggle on and off.

Translate-shell and Thesaurus_query.vim might be useful as well.

No idea if this will help because I haven't tried automating anki card production myself, but there's the "trans" command line utility. You can set the flags to get exactly and only the parts of the definition you want. There's a setting for which dictionary to use. It uses google by default but I had it using deepl instead (I just tried it and deepl may not be working right now?). https://github.com/soimort/translate-shell Here's some example output:

geode❀ ~/bin🐟 /usr/local/bin/trans en:nl -show-original n -show-original-dictionary n -show-languages n outbreak

uitbraak

​

Definitions of outbreak

​

noun

het uitbreken

outbreak

oproer

insurrection, revolt, rebellion, insurgency, mutiny, outbreak

​

outbreak

uitbraak, het uitbreken

apart from the usual stuff (ranger,newsboat,vim,the fish-shell,cmus)i really like taskell and trans and epr ... will come back if i remember some more.

A translate-shell wrapper that would fetch selected text and output its translation into a text window. I've seen some articles on how to do it, but they all been bugged so I made a proper version which was required by some of my coworkers.

BTW, translate-shell by itself is a mix of bash and awk.

>You'd better just write in english than use google translate. "Mojej polskiej studni"? Seriously?

Nie używam tłumaczenia google. Używam tego https://github.com/soimort/translate-shell

Przepraszam, jeśli przeszkadza

Hello.

Thanks you for your suggestions.

1. I handle it with a message "Password not yet available for today". I'll see if it work properly when it happens. If the password is not up, I try to collect it every 5 minutes during the next hour of password reset, and if it still not available every hour after that.
2. Very nice idea! I just added it
3. For translations, I use https://github.com/soimort/translate-shell. I manage it like this: translate from japanese to english => if it's found, give definition => if it's not found, print phonetic translation (like for japanese dishes). I'll try to check if the ouptut is correct for the password history (might take some time, but will teach me some japanese words for sure!)
