hello,
I've build a translation tool, to translate all strings in a python
source file.
As a extra gadget I added translation through Babel Fish,
using beautifulsoup.
Although it works functionally,
it can take lots of time waiting for the translation.
What I basically do is, after selecting a new string to be translated:
kwds = { 'trtext' : line_to_be_translated, 'lp' :'en_nl'}
soup = BeautifulSoup (urlopen(url, urlencode ( kwds ) ) )
translation= soup.find ( 'div', style='padding:0.6em;' ).string
self.Editor_Babel.SetLabel ( translation )
I'm using Python 2.5 and wxPython.
Probably I should use a separate thread, but that's above my knowledge.
I could also use a timer to check at regualr intervals when the
translation is ready,
but I've no idea how to implement that with the above code.
thanks,
Stef Mientki
