What the @#$% is BabelDoc ?
BabelDoc is a program which allows you to translate documents or text
strings from one language to another via AltaVista's translation services.
It can be launched from the WorkBench or CLI. If no parameters are given
from CLI, BabelDoc will behave the same as if launched from the WorkBench.
There are 3 input modes and they are as follows:-
text: Intended for one line texts since a carraige return will close the
string requestor. In CLI you may also enter text directly after the
`text' parameter if you wish.
kcon: Allows you to enter or paste up to 3500 characters and will output
to a KingCON console and word wrap to your screen size. Refer to
KingCON documentation for its usage.
file: Allows you convert a text file(s) of unlimited size. In CLI you may
also specify a file name after the `file' parameter if you wish.
The output file will be word wrapped to 76 characters in length and
will have the same name with a language extension added to it.
eg. #?.English
WorkBench usage is fairly straight forward and CLI usage is as follows:-
Usage:- BabelDoc <language> <text/kcon/file>

NB: I've had no success with Asian languages so far. For full support
of these languages suggestions on how to interpret the text codes
and what readers/fonts to use would be welcome.
See "Babelfish.lha" on the aminet for related interest.
