Hi. Would you like some help translating Ubuntu Tweak into better english? I’d be more than happy to assist. Send me an email if you like.

Nützliches Tool Ubuntu Tweak…

Ich habe soeben auf aptgetupdate.de ein Blogeintrag zu einem kleinen nützlichen Tool für Ubuntu gefunden. Ubuntu Tweak versucht dort zu greifen, wo die normalen Hilfsprogramme aufhören. Von Einstellungen für den WindowManager Start,…

Maybe, SQLite is the best solution, anyhow, a simple .ini file would be good enough

Thank you very much for your suggestion and encourage! I’m so happy.

And you are right, this application uses gconf string.

Follow your suggesion, I’ve create a static page of “Suggestion”, so that people can post their suggestion there.
About the external db…Em, that’s a good idea. But I don’t have any knowledge about the develop of database. I think I need to learn more now.

I will to see your application. It sounds very attractive…

Thank you again, Mr.Dreadsoft.

I think that ubuntu tweak could really become a killer app… BTW I wrote an application which is able to read from the ubuntu-it official forum and keep trace of the [solved] problems…

Thus, sometimes I get some Tips/Tricks/Tweaks which could be useful to extend your app… I had a glance at the source code and it seems it uses gconf strings, right ?

Here are some things you could do IMO:

- put a “static” page where people can suggest their own tweaks
- and/or put a static page where people can request tweaks
- maybe use an external db, (sqlite?) to store description/help/gconf strings, instead of hardconding them… that would ease up coding, translation and maintenance.
