This software allows you to translate any text on screen. Basically it is a combination of screen capture, OCR and translation tools.
There are 2 versions of the app: general and compatible.
They all share the same functionality.
The compatible version does not use some hardware optimizations,
but allows the app to be run on elder hardware.
At first, download general version (without any suffixes in
the downloadable archive's name).
If the app will silently crash during its work,
then try the compatible version.
Windows: download archive from github releases page, extract it and run .exe file.
If the app fails to start with missing dll's error then install vs_redist*.exe from the release archive.
If you have any update errors related to SSL/TLS you should also install or repair vcredist 2010 (from the Microsoft website).
Linux: download .AppImage file from github releases, make executable (chmod +x <file>) and run it.
OS X: currently not supported.
Start the app, open the updates page of the settings window and install required recognition languages, translators and, optionally, hunspell dictionaries.
After languages/translators installation set default recognition and
translation languages, enable some (or all) translators
and the translate text setting if needed.
- Run program (note that it doesn't have main window).
- Press capture hotkey.

Look at the scripts (python3) in the share/ci folder.
Normally, you should only edit the config.py file.
Build dependencies at first, then build the app.
