Deepl support #38

Closed ni-ka closed 5 years ago

ni-ka commented 5 years ago

Great extension! How about adding support for deepl - i find it translates more natural than Google Translate. Not sure they have an API yet though.

Hello there! API are available, but only under a paid plan I think.

Anyway, this extension is not using any API directly, it is based on a command line program (translate-shell) to make translations, so it would be better to have THAT implement deepl support, so that all the programs using translate shell can benefit from it. I'll close the issue, but I invite you to open it in their repo, it would be a nice feature!

Thanks Giacomo. I see they actually had deepl support but it was removed again in https://github.com/soimort/translate-shell/issues/268

Thanks anyway!
