BttrWiki | Cabezon / Translating CABEZON.ERR

Author(s): Robert Riebisch

Cabezon version 0.08 ships with compiler error messages in Japanese language only. This is a showstopper, if you don't know that language. That includes me. So I started translating to English in January 2020.

All messages are in a plain-text file cabex008.zip\CABEZON.ERR. You can use either Total Commander's internal viewer, Notepad2, or Notepad++ to load the file in Shift-JIS/Shift_JIS encoding. I fed every single line from CABEZON.ERR to the Google Translate service. The results were astonishingly good.

Text appearing red (also * symbol at the end of the line) means, that I'm not satisfied with the current translation. Either because of an unclear meaning or by just mixing cases for Pascal language keywords. -- My goal is to clear any red text over time. This requires some playing with Cabezon and looking at its source code to get a better understanding. -- If you would like to contribute, please contact me.

Error codes 60 to 64 are currently not used in Cabezon, so corresponding error messages are undefined.

A ready-to-use English CABEZON.ERR can be downloaded from the Cabezon main page.
