"Almost" is the key word here; the Babelfish's translations read as
word-for-word translations, with the source language's word order, and
with idioms often translated literally rather than idiomatically.
Some comments they make:
Something the different filter concepts of Ethereal for display
and Capturing are confusing.
Yes, at some point I need to finish up the stuff I've been working on to
translate a display-filter-like capture-filter language to "libpcap"
filter language, so that we can offer a similar filter language for
capture filters and other filters.
With their assistance for example certain packages can be
emphasized coloured. So far the user must make these
adjustments still. A list of meaningfully preset color coding
would be desirable.
Interesting. Any suggestions for a "default" color-coding scheme?
the program on an older Linux system for the application comes,
which contains still none ' glibc ', must one a static Binary
build itself (export LD_FLAGS=" static ").
It sounds as if they're saying that on a "libc5" system, you have to
build statically-linked binaries - or are they saying that if you build
it on a newer system, you have to statically-link it if you want to be
able to run it on a "libc5" system?
(Does German really use "Bibliothek" for a subroutine library? The
"Biblio" part too strongly suggests books to me, so it sounds a bit
odd to me.)
