Description

I found a really cool translator script that only needs gawk (gnu awk) to work. However, I’ve attempted to “beef it up” by creating a “front-end” of sorts that uses dialog to make it easier to do things like:

• Scan and translate
• Open document or image file and translate
• Type and translate
• Conversation
• Highlight text and translate
• Interactive Translate Shell
• Settings

For the first two items to work, you will need some extra packages installed such as tesseract-ocr, poppler-tools, and able to run “soffice --headless.” The video lists what you’ll need, and be sure to check out any links in the description. Also, note that file-paths blurred-out in my videos typically refers to my home folder. I take privacy very seriously.
