Re: PostgreSQL NLS for Hebrew

Hello,

I'd like to initiate the translation project to Hebrew (he) to enable
PostgreSQL NLS in Israel.
Could you please suggest if I have to submit PO file to
https://redmine.postgresql.org/projects/pgtranslation/ or send it here
after completion.
Is there any preference for specific program in 9.6 branch to start with?

My community user is mic.goldberg.

Thank you,
Michael Goldberg

Welcome!

I suggest you start with the master branch. We usually don't add new
languages to existing releases.

To start, pick something widely used such as pgscripts or psql.

Submit the files to redmine please.

10beta1 is scheduled in about 2 weeks, so perhaps you could have
something ready for that. I' curious if we handle the right-to-left
direction properly.

I submitted pgscripts translation. Link to issue in redmine:

I tested on Debian 8 installed with Hebrew locale. Added "he" to nls.nk
file.
Worked as expected in mlterm.

Both files (pgscripts and psql) are completed.
What can you suggest to continue with?

libpq, pg_dump, initdb, pg_ctl, and pg_basebackup are all widely used.
After that I suggest that you focus on backend translation.

I submitted the translations for all those files.
Could you please guide me what should be done for backend translation to be
started.

Thanks,
Michael

It just means to translate postgres.po, which is a large file.
