<BODY><!-- Converted from text/plain format -->
<P><FONT size=2><FONT face=Verdana>Alex,<BR><BR>Please recieve attached the
first version of the Workplace localization in persian, which is not yet
complete.<BR>I hope I will be done by the work in two weeks, till mid of this
month.<BR>I'm working on a howto for right to left settings for the workplace
(the settings required in main.css of my opencms modul, are only the DIRECTION =
"RTL" attribute in {body ...} and {P .. } and {title .. } elements). I do had
done some experiments with the format.css of the whole ocms system and set the
DIRECTION attribute to RTL, the whole system was mirrored to right to left, so
that the german and english versions where affected too, they became funny. I do
think it must be possible to do it optional (?). Since the new version will
support the rtl direction, I won't do additional work for the 5.x workplace. The
current version works fine with some little tricks and / or using other persian
editors and the copy and paste to the ocms wysiwyg editor.</FONT></FONT></P>
<P><FONT size=2><FONT face=Verdana>I do am working and dealing with some guys in
US and Iran on a persian / finglish editor as a java applet (finglish
stands for english to farsi or farsi to english). You can type on english
keybord and the text will be mapped to pesrian chars :-). We do hope we will be
done till mid of this year and could provide it as OpenSource under LGPL
License.</FONT></FONT></P>
<P><FONT size=2><FONT face=Verdana>Additionaly I have made some help files
available for setting up windows, linux os and IE, Mozzilla and Netscape
browsers to support Farsi, which I will include too into the module
later.<BR><BR><FONT color=#ff0000>Feedback 6.0 alpha
Installation:</FONT></FONT></FONT></P>
<P><FONT size=2><FONT face=Verdana>I do have installed today the opencms 6.0
alpha1 version on my dev mashine, it was realy great, no problems, it looks
pretty nice and powerful, thanks for your great work (jvm 1.4.1, MYSQL 4,
win2000, tomcat 4.1.27). I imported the workplace localization into the system
(and could guess it won't work), but under the preferences I can select "ir" as
language, it seems that the value of the language is the country code extension
(in my case ir) of the module (org.opencms.locales.ir_1.0.zip). How different
are the keys between workplace_cc.properties (cc: country code) of the 5.x and
6.0 version of ocms? I do ask this because I'm going to translate and write some
small tutorials and howto's in the Persian language and would like to do it for
the upcoming version 6.0 of ocms, so that the work shall not be done twice. Can
I do the translation work in parallel for the new version of ocms too? If yes,
how? Would the import mechanism for the localization modules be so easy as the
same as by 5.x version? or more easier :-) Is it possible to have a look on the
new workplace_cc.properties of the alpha version at this time</FONT>?</FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Verdana size=2>Thanks again to you and the whole group for your
great work and your help</FONT></P>

Subject: [opencms-dev] Contribution on Workplace translation<BR>> for Farsi
(Persian, Iranian) language, or Arabic, Hebrew<BR>><BR>><BR>> Hi Dear
All,<BR>><BR>> I do have done a first translation of the workplace into
the Farsi<BR>> (Persian, Iranian) language. I do have translated the
Kölsch<BR>> workplace.properties completely plus the context.x properties
into<BR>> persian and is not yet complete (I like Kölsch and beside
trinking<BR>> Kölsch I use it as the default language of my opencms workplace
;-)).<BR>><BR>> Is there anybody who works on such translation of the
workplace and<BR>> /or Online Help? Or in the Hebrew or Arabic which are both
Right to<BR>> Left oriented. I would like to discuss the problems and the
possible<BR>> Solutions with them. If not I'll go on with the work myself in
the<BR>> next weekends.<BR>><BR>> To whom can / shall I post the first
version?<BR>><BR>> May be someone in Iran, Afganistan, or where else in
the world has<BR>> some interesst to support this Contribution and work on
the problems<BR>> with Right to left and bi-directional support(inline
problem) in the<BR>> WYSIWYG editor or plug another editor within the
upcoming version 6.0<BR>> of OpenCMS.<BR>><BR>> Who knows:<BR>> Is
there any way to define a property for the current WYSIWYG editor,<BR>> so
that after entering to it, the courser position can be set to the<BR>> right
side as default?<BR>><BR>> Awaiting Your feedback<BR>> Best Regards and
thanks in advance<BR>> Arash<BR>><BR>> arash@pomegranate.de<BR>>
