Olive: [Issue] Unclear translation wiki page instructions

[elsandosgrande]

The page is not clear on the generation of a new file for editing. I have tried just lupdate olive.pro, but it spits this out: Info: creating stash file /opt/Olive-translating/olive/.qmake.stash /opt/Olive-translating/olive/panels/viewer.cpp:207: Unexpected character in meta string Updating 'ts/olive_de.ts'... Found 632 source text(s) (0 new and 632 already existing) Updating 'ts/olive_es.ts'... Found 632 source text(s) (0 new and 632 already existing) Updating 'ts/olive_fr.ts'...

Found 632 source text(s) (0 new and 632 already existing), while trying lupdate olive.pro olive_bs.ts gave me lupdate error: File 'olive_bs.ts' does not exist.. I'll try working from a copy of the German file until I figure this out.

You‘ll need to add olive_bs.ts to olive.pro or run, as stated in wiki, lupdate olive.pro olive_bs.ts.

I tried running that, it gave me what it gave me (see my full message). So, how do I add it to olive.pro?

[naj59]

To the TRANSLATIONS += part of it.

[elsandosgrande]

So, it's a text file? OK then.

[elsandosgrande]

Yeah, someone add that to the wiki page. Thanks @naj59 !

I apologize, the command is supposed to be lupdate olive.pro -ts <ts-file>. I left out the -ts part by accident.

[elsandosgrande]

I knew something was off! Also, I would suggest adding the "edit olive.pro" method in the wiki, since some might prefer that over the lupdate olive.pro -ts <ts-file> command (especially if they want to do multiple translations) and it doesn't hurt (list it under "Alternative method" I guess).
