Translate the Osara documentation (Readme.md)

Open ElCrackLoko opened this issue 3 years ago • 1 comments

Hello bros. My team (PMA) and I would love to start translating the Osara documentation into Spanish, but it is out of date or missing commands. For example, there is the command to delete tracks, (We know that it is delete) the command to insert a track (Control + T) control A to select all tracks, set the end of the item to its original duration, (Control + L ) and so on. There are commands that for Hispanics are impossible, (At least in the Latin American distribution that I use) such as Alt + \ (as I see it is to alternate between recording modes, as normal, by time selection and by selected items) such as It is not possible to apply this command, I cannot test it and be sure if it is, although I try to guess it haha, since the backslash or backslash () (to write it we have to type alt 92 on the numeric keyboard, and while we type the 9 and 2, other actions are already carried out but never the one that was predestined. But hey, we will be able to think of a solution for that later, the first thing would be to see how to translate the Osara documentation, when it is updated with the commands of course In addition, many change in the keyboard layout. For example, one of them is to mark the start of selection and the end. For us it is the apostrophe and the open question mark as appropriate. Another different command for us that fortunately we can use is to raise and lower the BPM in a project like Alt hyphen and alt +. For us it is the plus sign (+) for you it is the equal (=). This same we do it with Shift0. the minus sign is fine. Other commands that are quite interesting to me is reading the tempo and BPM section. There are not the commands that are used to, for example, reduce the BPM of a project by half, or increase / decrease by 10%, or increase / decrease 10BPM, etc. If possible, where could I see the entire Osara map that you have mapped? I'm thinking of also posting a message to the Reaper Accessible Wiki because that documentation is older than Freedoom Scientific trying to sell JAWS licenses to the blind lol. There is still the command Shift + Alt + W I think, which was to activate the peak meter window, when in reality it is Alt + W. So, let's go in parts. I'd like to start with the documentation here.

I'm most of the way through sprucing up the ReadMe here. Need to find time to finish that project, but at the moment, finding time isn't easy. Note that in many cases, the omissions of keystrokes that you've flagged are because those actions are provided as part of a custom action, or that feedback is supported but the action isn't mapped by default. My reworking of the ReadMe clarifies that situation and groups all examples into a single category. In the meantime, you can generate a full list of shortcuts by hitting Shift+F1 in Reaper. To see every action that has been created by OSARA, search for "OSARA" in the document that gets generated. Re the wiki site, yeah, management of that is a mess. There doesn't seem to be anyone who's consistently in charge right now. Unfortunately, it's not something that I can take on here (at least, not in addition to moderating the other support channels and the Dropbox resource). Only a small number of community members actually contribute edits, fixes and updates to the wiki. If this is a topic you care about, my advice is to join in with their effort. Anyone is welcome to contribute. The Reaper shortcut key list by headings article is one thing that still needs work to bring it fully up to date, that would be a helpful place to start. Search the phrase "Review of keystrokes needed" to find where the most recent contributor got up to, and pick up where they left off.
