- All translation updated to follow GNOME Translation Rules for Brazilian Portuguese, this are the same rules for other Linux Distributions, Manuals, etc. Now we can avoid translation conflicts.
http://br.gnome.org/GNOMEBR/ErrosFrequenteshttp://br.gnome.org/GNOMEBR/GuiaDoTradutor
- Brazilian Portuguese REQUIRE context, it doesn't matter what a word say, we need to see what the program is doing instead of what the word/phrase is saying to construct the phrase correctly.
- That ROM AUDITION functions means nothing in Brazilian Portuguese, so the translation was adapted to "Condição", this reflects better if the ROM is GOOD/BAD, etc.
- OK has different meanings in Brazilian Portuguese, if you ask someone if the food was good and you reply "OK", it means that the food are between good and bad or more or less. Since "Ok" doesn't reflect if the ROM is good or not, the translation was changed to "BOA" witch means "GOOD" following Brazilian Portuguese concordance rules "Estado dA ROM" this "A" tell us to use "boA" (female) instead of "BOM"(male).
- Some parts of the translation was also adapted to fit the screen or the space the phrase is at.
- To our language, the correct translation to plugin is plug-in.
- A few more mistakes were fixed like Enter (to type in) = Digite not "Entre" (to get inside of) or Search = Pesquisa not "Busca", etc.
* Change makefile rules to treat mame.pot as a target so rules can depend on it
* Put mame.pot inside the build directory so it will get cleaned
* Couldn't get xgettext to scrape lua and C++ in the same command and still remove stale strings
* Use larger strings and format specifiers to fix some localisation issues
- Issue with "None" lacking context in Russian and Turkish translations
- Issue with "Not implemented" changing depending on the noun in Serbian
- Issues with lua plugins not allowing for languages with different grammar/punctuation
Strings that need to be translated after this change - most of these are existing text that's been made into larger chunks or reworded slightly:
"Mechanical Machine\tYes\n"
"Mechanical Machine\tNo\n"
"Requires Artwork\tYes\n"
"Requires Artwork\tNo\n"
"Requires Clickable Artwork\tYes\n"
"Requires Clickable Artwork\tNo\n"
"Support Cocktail\tYes\n"
"Support Cocktail\tNo\n"
"Driver is BIOS\tYes\n"
"Driver is BIOS\tNo\n"
"Support Save\tYes\n"
"Support Save\tNo\n"
"Screen Orientation\tVertical\n"
"Screen Orientation\tHorizontal\n"
"Requires CHD\tYes\n"
"Requires CHD\tNo\n"
"ROM Audit Result\tOK\n"
"ROM Audit Result\tBAD\n"
"Samples Audit Result\tNone Needed\n"
"Samples Audit Result\tOK\n"
"Samples Audit Result\tBAD\n"
"ROM Audit Disabled\t\n"
"Samples Audit Disabled\t\n"
"Activated: %s = %s"
"Activated: %s"
"Enabled: %s"
"Disabled: %s"
"%s added"
"Default name is %s"
"Cheat written to %s and added to cheat.simple"
"Unable to write file\n"

* Use Cyrillic е/ј rather than visually similar Latin e/j
* Kometar -> Коментар (no idea how that happened)
* Fix questionable automatic translisterations
- ЦПУ -> CPU (this wasn't even consistent - some strings used CPU already)
- Мамесцоре -> Mamescore
- КС -> X, И -> Y (as in X оса/Y оса)
* category filter is now saved/restored if it's last used
* category filter can be used in composite custom filters
* category filter now provides UI rather than relying on options menu
* less confusing when no categories found
* also de-duplicated code for drawing category list
(nw) please test this everyone and let me know if there are reproducible
crashes or things that don't work right - I'm trying to make the
internal UI more consistent and stable
Note that to run make translation you need to patch GNU gettext to support C++14 digit grouping.
