Wish: Translation plugin

[masu]

hello,

how about a plugin, so that whenever you type in a word, it will be auto. translated into another language

[lanux128]

until then, you can use mouser's Google Translator Boomerang..

Another alternative to a plugin is to use an online translation web page.

I started making an alias file that could be used to launch google translation page, but never got around to finishing it.  anyone feel like completing this alias file:

Code: (xml)

<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<!-- This file defines aliases for use by the Find and Run Robot program (http://www.donationcoder.com/Software/Mouser/findrun/index.html). -->
<FarrAliasFile>
    <FileFormatVersion>1</FileFormatVersion>
    <AliasSetDescription>Tranaslation Tools on the Web</AliasSetDescription>
    <AliasEntry>
        <AliasText>gtrans</AliasText>
        <Score>1000</Score>
        <Regex>^gtrans (.*)</Regex>
        <Results>
            <Result>English to Spanish: $$c |http://translate.google.com/translate_t?langpair=en|es&amp;hl=en&amp;ie=UTF-8&amp;oe=UTF-8&amp;submit=Translate&amp;text=$$c</Result>
            <Result>English to German: $$c |http://translate.google.com/translate_t?langpair=en|de&amp;hl=en&amp;ie=UTF-8&amp;oe=UTF-8&amp;submit=Translate&amp;text=$$c</Result>
        </Results>
    </AliasEntry>
</FarrAliasFile>

mouser, what is missing from this alias file?

[justice]

probably that there are more languagees than english and spanish.
just make "en|es" a parameter for the alias so you'd say:
gtrans en|de Donationcoder in german

[mouser]

just make "en|es" a parameter for the alias

that's a good idea too!

note: the wish has been granted! check out Google Translation Plugin.
