You can start by writing a plugin following this guide: https://www.basiccat.org/how-to-write-a-plugin-for-imagetrans/

My major focus has been shifted to ImageTrans and this guide is for ImageTrans, but the basic process is the same.


Hi @Xulihang, good to see you're still here. Thanks for your reply. The BASIC on the page you linked to looks familiar to a VBA user. This makes it even more attractive to dive into the code of your application.

First I had to understand what B4J is. I found this: https://www.b4x.com/b4j.html. It's my understanding that B4J is a layer between (a kind of BASIC) and your OS via Java.

Italian messages Dec 26, 2024

Hi,

Why are the LT messages in Italian? Can I change it to English?

XOJO Dec 26, 2024

Hello,

Are you familiar with www.xojo.com?

Do you think that it would be possible to leave all B4J parts behind and port the pure BASIC to XOJO? Just asking ...

For languages other than English and Chinese, it uses auto detection: https://github.com/xulihang/BasicCAT/blob/6577644670af3ee870924f664bc999855b0eaaa1/BasicCAT/LanguageTool.bas#L23-L29

So it may misdetect the language.

You can try to port the code for some functions like sentence segmentation to Xojo's BASIC.

It requires a lot of work.

That's too bad! It would be a lot of fun to explore your code in Xojo (or a similar tool). I'm not familiar with all that Git stuff, and I'm not looking for another Java tool (I already have a very good one).

Technically, this seems possible but I think it will be a lot of work - it's hard to say how much but it does seem doable. Before that, I would look at the licenses and make sure that such a port is allowed, if the result would need to be open source, etc.

The license is GPL. If you directly copy the code, then you need to follow the GPL license. If you just rewrite the code, you don't have to follow it.
