|
<p>More translations is good ! If you are a non-english speaker
|
|
(and understand english, which can probably be assumed, you
|
|
being reading this), you can take a little time to translate
|
|
the GUI messages file.</p>
|
|
<p>The newest versions of the message files follow can be found
|
|
in <a href="translations">this directory</a>. There
|
|
is an empty one (the xx one), the others are partially
|
|
translated, just needing an update for the new messages.<p>
|
|
<p>Updating the files can easily be done with
|
|
the <span class="application">Qt Linguist</span>. Contact me
|
|
for more directions if needed.</p>

<h1><a name="development">Development</a></h1>
|
|
|
|
<p>The Recoll source repository is
|
|
on <a href="http://bitbucket.org/medoc/recoll">Bitbucket</a>. Using
|
|
Mercurial, you're 2 commands away from cloning it and
|
|
hacking away.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Apart from the many tasks inside the
|
|
<a href="http://bitbucket.org/medoc/recoll/issues">issue
|
|
tracking system</a>, these are the general areas where help or
|
|
ideas are particularly welcome:</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>A better GUI design (both the ergonomy and the
|
|
appearance). Adding missing shortcuts or fixing the menu
|
|
accelerators for exemple is easy and useful.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>More support for the more advanced <span class=
|
|
"application">Xapian</span> concepts like relevance
|
|
feedback.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>More filters for less common or less obviously
|
|
useful file types.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>Integration with the <span class="application">KDE</span>
|
|
desktop.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>Integration with some mail user agent. We need a way to
|
|
jump from a message preview to the message in thread context
|
|
inside the MUA.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>Etc. :)</li>
|

<h1><a name="problemreport">Problem reporting</a></h1>
|
|
|
|
<p>Once in a while it will happen that a Recoll program will
|
|
crash (either the "recoll" graphical interface or the
|
|
"recollindex" command line indexing command).</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Reporting crashes is very useful. It can help others, and it
|
|
can get your own problem to be solved.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>You will find help and information about producing a useful
|
|
problem report on this
|
|
<a href="https://bitbucket.org/medoc/recoll/wiki/ProblemSolvingData">
|
|
Recoll wiki page</a>.</p>
