voidtools

makevoidtools

makevoidtools is a program to compile your own voidtools.com website.
All text can be customized for localization.



makevoidtools Guide

  • Extact makevoidtools.zip to a new folder, eg: c:\makevoidtools
  • Copy the en-us.txt file and name it with the language code for your language and region.
  • This is the main translation template file for the website.
  • For example: es-us.txt
  • Copy the en-us subfolder and name it with the language code for your language and region.
  • This is the main translation folder for the website.
  • For example: es-us
  • open your main translation file, eg: en-us.txt
  • Read the notes inside this translation file for help.
  • translate all strings.
  • translate all pages in the main translation folder, eg: en-us\*.txt


Requirements

Only the files directly in your main translation folder (eg: en-us) need to be translated.
Translating the support wiki is not required. -not all pages need translating as some are quite technical.
translating the following support wiki pages are encouraged:
  • 01-Installing Everything.txt
  • 02-Using Everything.txt
  • Searching.txt


Offline help

The Everything.chm offline help will use the same support wiki templates.



Testing

Run makevoidtools.exe
makevoidtools will compile *.txt in the same location as makevoidtools.exe
These txt files will be translation templates for each language and region.

makevoidtools.exe <output folder> <url root>

Example:
makevoidtools.exe c:\makevoidtools\voidtools file://c:/makevoidtools/voidtools

Open c:\makevoidtools\voidtools\index.html



Wiki Pages

Make sure you open and save wiki pages as UTF-8
Wiki pages in the support folder use basic wiki markup language.
Prefixing a wiki page template with a number are shown above all other wiki pages in sequence. For example, 01-Installing Everything.txt is the first wiki page listed and 02-Using Everything.txt is the second wiki page listed and so on.
wiki page templates starting with a underscore (_) are hidden. For example: http://www.voidtools.com/support/everything/db.



Wiki syntax

The voidtools wiki syntax is very similar to Wikipedia's markup with some limitations:

Relative URLs are relative to http://www.voidtools.com/en-us
where en-us is your language-region code.
The |text part in [ [url|text]] can be omitted, in which case the url is used as the text and URLs paths are striped when no protocol is present.
