Looking for maintainer
Hi all, I'm happy to maintain this repository but I cannot work on it much as I am not using the Gnome desktop anymore. I did not write this thing myself, I just kinda hacked it so it could still work after the creator abandoned it. If you want to manage this repo, open an issue :)
Text Translator
Translation of the text by different translators (currently Google.Translate, Yandex.Translate).
Installing translate-shell
This extension needs the package translate-shell.
Also, make sure you have the following dependencies installed:
sudo apt install gir1.2-clutter-1.0 gir1.2-clutter-gst-3.0 gir1.2-gtkclutter-1.0
Install translate-shell
cd /usr/bin
sudo wget https://git.io/trans
sudo chmod a+x trans
For full install instructions see translate-shell#installation. If you have trouble using translate-shell, make sure your version of translate-shell is over 0.9.5-1, otherwise it might cause issues.
