<p>It would be great if we could use the translation tool WPML from
WordPress for the Cinelerra manual, then it would be easy to
translate the whole manual, because the automatic translation
function of WPML does a lot of work. <br>
<br>
My suggestion would be as follows:<br>
<br>
1. The manual can be imported as HTML, so you can export it and
also import it into LaTex, some hand changes to LaTex would still
be necessary.<br>
2. Changes could then always be done very quickly online and
several people could also work on the manual, because the
individual web pages could be maintained independently of each
other.<br>
3. Translators would then always be notified immediately if there
were any new changes to the manual. This allows the translator to
react quickly.<br>
4. The translator does not have to bother with the design of the
manual because the translation is independent of the design. <br>
5. The translator does not have to familiarize himself with other
tools like LaTex.<br>
<br>
The HTML document can be exported to LaTex, LaTex can be used to
create very nice looking PDF manuals that users can download or
look up online.<br>

<div><span class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">It
does sound like a lot of work and it would certainly be
worthwhile. BUT I think we need to wait until it is fully
converted to LaTex (Andrea/Andrey are getting pretty close
as far as I know). And I have many additions to make for
new features that have been added recently that are
currently undocumented, plus installing the latex package
on my laptop and learning how to use it. If you translate
it now, it would be more work to fix it up later.
However, it is your choice.</span></div>
