Fenix Desktop English Translation

[EvilDragon]

Hi,

I just Hex-Edited Fenix Desktop and thus created an English version.
This may be buggy as well as contain a lot of translation errors, as I don't know Spanish at all...
I may also have overlooked some text, but I think it's pretty complete...

Installation:
You need a working installation of Fenix (for the GP32).
Get it here.

Then download the translation here and copy the file into the Fenix Directory.

Delete the config.ini in the Fenix Directory if exists before you start the English Fenix Desktop!

Some tutorial links for Fenix can be found here (thanks to Moogle).

Please report any bugs (translation bugs, not Fenix bugs) here.

Note: You can't run your programs using Fenix Desktop. This has something to do with the GP32 version and is NOT a translation bug.
Find more information about that on above mentioned Tutorial page.

Happy coding!

thanx, I've been wanting to look at Fenix for a while now, but due to the little amount of english docs, I've been unable to. Thanks to you and Moogle for trying to help move this along!

I'll be looking into Fenix, thanks

he, just before checking here I found it on Flamingbird.com ... first time I see something like this before it gets posted here.

a little question.... fenix is not object oriented like c++ right?

so you write all the code in one place (file) ....? or can you have several files before you compile?

what type of things can one do in Fenix??

Hm? What do you mean?
I can't find anything about this on Flamingbird.com... would also have been strange, as I released it here first

EDIT: Ha, just found it in the downloads section
Moogle's been real fast

 

[Endurion]

oh, sorry... thought it was this one

but I guess not then... as is says:

"An English interface on the popular Fenix Deskyop IDE, kindly provided by Moogle."

thanks for this one anyway....

 

[Endurion]

It is not exactly the same.... so I think you both have made a hack

He, looks like it
Just looked into it - not as much translated as in my version, but some stuff I didn't understand in has been translated by him

So I can fix up some stuff in my version

check out the commands... it seems to be a pretty easy-to-understand very high-level language (i.e. easier than BASIC)

the tradeoff is flexibility, but judging by the stuff that's been produced, there's not much bother there...

Looks more like what PHP would be like if it was a programming language.

Hey, good idea
When will it be ready then ??

 

[Moogle]

Hehe, true, I did exactly that about a month ago. Though I didn't post a link to it on that writeup page, because someone told me he crashed it(only happened once, never had any problems myself). Heh, well, I guess it's always good to give people a choice

EDIT:

Just place the "Feniesktop.exe" into your Fenix Directory (overwrite the Spanish Version) and delete the config.ini if it exists (if you don't this may have some strange effects )

How did that happen, did you translate the config.ini entries too?

Hehe, you did that, too, probably without knowing.
Maybe that's why your version crashed.
You translated the name of the Default Contrast theme - and that's the name
which is saved into the config.ini.

So, if you have a spanish config.ini and start the english version, it makes weird colors if you load a code or start a new one and crashes as soon as you try to
change the colors, because it can't find the contrast theme which is saved in the configuration
If you delete the config, it will recreate it using the correct name.
Took me a while to figure that out

 

[Moogle]

Whack, just figured that out while reading your post

This was my translation topic

He, so now we have two english translations
Nice

Well, anyways, who cares, most important is, that now English users can start coding Only took 4 hours translating, that's not too much
