[Koha-docs] Arabic manual 38

[Karam Qubsi]

Hi all

Thanks Nicole
I test it locally and it looks good , and i found the way to convert it to
html :) (and to po)

but I'm puzzled a little

where is the best to start ?
in translating the 3.8 manual ( because it is maybe stable more than 3.10)

or work in 3.10 to make the next koha version full in Arabic (manuals and
system)

so please advice .

and one more point , I've found a tool that convert (docbook) format to po
and we can translate it from there

it is more easy to translate

If there is flaws in this solution please let me know.

 *the attached file* is the po generated from the manaul.xml (for 3.10)
and it could be  re convert to xml after translation

I used the gnome-doc-utils
https://live.gnome.org/GnomeDocUtils/

"It includes xml2po tool which makes it easier to translate and keep up to
date translations of documentation"

Hi Frédéric :)

Can we use the Pootle Server to translate manuals ? as a new project (not
just for arabic )

I think to make koha more translatable we need to provide easy way to
translate the system and the manuals
I think the translator who used to translate in Pootle will find this
more easier to translate the documentation

I wish you all happy times
