Is it possible to add Russian language support? #62

Open Andrew666 opened 1 month ago

Like a translation for the UI or is there an issue with Cyrillic-encoded books?

There an issue with Cyrillic-encoded books

Ephemerality commented 1 month ago

What's the issue and do you have an example book you could share?

Andrew666 commented 1 month ago

Since the book is in Cyrillic, the program does not find comparisons to English terms. I have attached the log and the book file. 19.08.13.12.05.2024.txt Ighry Niemiezidy - Dzhieims Kori.zip

Sorry for the delay -- do you have a source somewhere that lists the terms in the Cyrillic form that show up in the book? My current term source doesn't have any Russian translations available.

Andrew666 commented 2 weeks ago

No, unfortunately I only know Russian Wikipedia. I thought it might be possible to add similar terms from English sources to Russian-language books. In any case, thanks for the reaction.

Yeah the issue is that they have to match exactly with the text of the book so if the names are in Cyrillic the book I'd need to have a source for those exact strings. For example, the app supports German because the data source has German character names available.
