I found some non-english language specific problem with AnyDaisy

[Attila Hammer]

Dear AnyDaisy Developers,

I tryed this Firefox extension with my Linux operating system and this extension is very good, thank you this good extension.
I found some localization specific bug:
1. I would like full translate this extension messages with hungarian language, and in future, I would like translate Anydaisy help files. I look launchpad translation page, but Anydaisy is not supported with Launchpad translation. I unzipped the firefox extension with a directory and look have any files with locale/en-Us directory, unfortunately this directory is empty. I translated old time another extensions messages with hungarian language, but I need the localization file to possible begin do this task. Or impossible localizing this extension now, you scheduled in future fixing this problem?
Anydaisy supports now non english language localizations? If yes, how can I begin do this translation work? I welcome do the localization work, but I am not perfect extension programmer now.

2. This is only hungarian language specific, but some any-daisy keystroke commands conflicts with hungarian keyboard layout. For example: Alt+Shift+/, Alt+Shift+' (I hope remember correct the keystrokes).
If possible localizing Anydaisy Firefox extension messages, possible redefine this problematic keystrokes with another keystrokes when the used language is hungarian in future?

3. I would like read a hungarian text-only Daisy book with Anydaisy firefox extension with Comprehensive or book navigation mode. The problem is following: Anydaisy now using Espeak speech synthesizer with english language voice. Espeak supports very good the hungarian language pronunciation, but now Anydaisy does'nt support any setting to switch another language Espeak voice. This is localization specific problem, or Anydaisy now supports only English language voice?

Attila,

Sorry for not getting back to you on this sooner. Yes, international support is planned for AnyDaisy, although it is not planned for the 1.0 release that we are working to finish. It definitely does need to support localization of the user interface, and once we have the support in place we would love to have your Hungarian translations added.

We also have a task defined to support customizing the keyboard mapping, but that is also after the 1.0 release. I know how hard it can be to avoid conflicting keyboard combinations in all settings, so that is surely needed.

I'll add a task to work on espeak language customization as well. That's a good catch, thank you.

Thanks for your feedback, it really helps.
John Brugge

Thanks for your willingness to help.

Hi AnyDaisy Developers,
I am using linux and have a better sounding cepstral voice on my computer. How do I get the plugin to use that rather than the default kal_diphone voice?
