02:22 Strait hmm, how do i get there from the user interface?
02:23 mason from here -> /cgi-bin/koha/detail.pl?bib=23740
02:23 click the barcode of an item, which takes you to here
02:23 /cgi-bin/koha/moredetail.pl?type​=&item=23020&bib=23740&bi=23740
02:24 then under the 'GROUP' record, click the 'modify' button
02:25 which takes you to here -> /cgi-bin/koha/modbibitem.pl
02:25 Strait hold on, i'll change the language ;)
02:25 mason lol :)
02:25 Strait i've been working on the finnish translation
02:25 it's not quite finished yet
02:26 so the system speaks gibberish
02:26 mason wow!
02:27 Strait i have Group Number: 1
02:27 but no modify button
02:28 mason on moredetail.pl ?
02:29 Strait yep
02:29 i had npl template
02:29 mason ah, let me change to that
02:30 Strait i see the group record on default template
02:30 but modify button does nothing :(
02:32 mason ok, ive got it

02:34 Strait right

02:35 mason yup
02:35 Strait i don't have that :(
02:35 0-5
02:36 mason doh,
02:36 Strait what fields do i need there?
02:36 mason what ver of koha u got?
02:36 Page 6
02:36 Strait 2.2.5
02:36 mason 942  - Biblioitem information
02:36  a Institution code
02:36  c item type
02:36  k dewey
02:36 Strait 942?
02:37 is that marc21 or unimarc?
02:37 mason this koha is on 2.2.2
02:37 Strait or some koha-specific non-marc field?
02:37 mason no, i thinks its plain old marc21
02:38 Strait not according to http://www.loc.gov/marc/bibliographic/nlr/
02:38 marc21 doesn't have that
02:38 mason from sys pref's  -> 'marcflavour  MARC21'
02:38 Strait koha doesn though
02:39 i am using marc21 already
02:39 koha has that field i see
02:39 managed on tab 5 XD
02:40 ok, so it's tab 5 for me, not 6
02:40 found it now
02:41 thanks a lot :)
02:41 mason hee hee , great :)
02:41 Strait hmm, maybe 9xx fields are some library/systemspecfic things in marc21
02:42 since the "official" marc21 doesn't seem to have them at all
02:42 specific even...
02:44 mason yes, it could well be
03:25 slef mornings--
03:26 house mods--
05:39 Strait do you have somekind of recommendations on how to deal with shortcuts on translations?
05:39 I'm translating NPL templates
05:39 they have these handy shortcuts for the most commonly used functions
05:40 the problem is that in different languages the shortcuts don't make any sense
05:40 for example: Quick Search = Pikahaku
05:40 in finnish
05:40 no Q in that...
05:40 so right now the ui shows QPikahaku :D
05:40 slef some sites I know use numbers and arbitrary letters for shortcuts
05:41 so I guess I'd label it as Pikahaku [Q]
05:41 or similar
05:41 like in a menu
05:41 Strait then the changes will have to be made to the templates?
05:41 slef or Q: Pikahaku
05:41 Strait that might be a good way
05:41 the switching languages wouldn't change the shortcuts
05:42 slef I'd expect this would be a known problem in UI translation
05:42 Strait +n
05:42 slef but I've not really read up on it
05:42 I think I've done all of one and a half translations so far
05:42 and both of those were command line programs
05:42 where, sadly, the option flags don't change
05:42 so not all make sense
05:43 Strait in commandline programs it's good in my opinion that flags stay
05:43 even if they don't make sense
05:43 slef stuff like  "--expire   mortigxu daton" in the help messages :-/
05:43 erm, igxi
05:44 help messages seem to always be infinitive
05:44 nfi why
05:45 Strait i'm not sure about dm-interfaces
05:45 in them it would be reasonable to expect that shortcuts follow the language of the ui
05:45 but then they would change from language version to another
05:46 slef dm?
05:46 Strait direct manipulation
05:46 gui-like thingys
05:47 which is what koha is
05:47 slef I'm just looking at a few other projects
05:47 Strait of course it has little to do with graphics ;)
05:48 slef The welsh KDE/Gnomers seem to keep the characters the same
05:48 http://www.kyfieithu.co.uk/remember.php?lg=en
05:48 Strait in finland they have traditionally been translated in the menus
05:48 but for example undo is always CTRL+Z
05:49 save CTRL+S
05:49 cut CTRL+X
05:49 and so on
05:49 but in the menus the underlined letter is language specifis
05:49 s=c
05:52 I could change the shortcuts directly the the templates
05:52 to the
05:52 (god i make so many mistakes in english :D)
05:52 slef KDE seems to have no policy on it
05:53 Strait i'll discuss it with the others in finnish koha-project
05:53 we have default templates translated
05:53 but npl seems better for out purposes
05:53 our :D
05:54 npl-templates are better at dealing with varying length of the words in translations
05:55 we had big problems with that using the default templates
08:29 paul hello pierrick
08:29 pierrick hello paul ;-)
09:24 kyle has anyone seen this message in their koha-access_log:
