Usage

Languages supported: ["en", "de", "zh", "fr", "es", "pt", "it", "nl", "pl", "ru", "ja"] (currently supported by the website)

Input file formats currently supported: txt and docx, files with other suffix (e.g., .csv, .tsv) will simply treated as text.

To interrupt anytime: Ctrl-c. The first few versions may not run too smoothly. If it hangs, press control and c at the same time to exit.

deepl-tr-pp -p file.txt  # en to zh, default en to zh, dualtext output, docx format
deepl-tr-pp -p file.txt -f de   # de to zh
deepl-tr-pp -p file.txt -f de -t en  # de to en

deepl-tr-pp   # browse for a file, en to zh

deepl-tr-pp --copyfrom   # text from the clipboard, en to zh

deepl-tr-pp -p file.txt --nodualtext  # en to zh, default en to zh, just translate text

deepl-tr-pp -p file.txt --nooutput-docx  # default en to zh, dualtext, text format

By default, the text version of the output is copied to the clipboard, turn this off by --nocopyto

deepl-tr-pp -p file.txt --nocopyto

Finer Control Using .env and Environ Variables

To show the browser in action or set debug or proxy, create an .env file and set the corresponding environ variables (these can also be set from the command line, e.g., set DEEPLTR_HEADFUL=true (in Windows) or export DEEPLTR_HEADFUL=true (in Linux) ):

# .env
DEEPLTR_HEADFUL=true
DEEPLTR_DEBUG=true

# DEEPLTR_HEADFUL=True
# DEEPLTR_HEADFUL=tRue  # also works
# DEEPLTR_HEADFUL=False
# DEEPLTR_HEADFUL=fAlse
# DEEPLTR_HEADFUL=1
# DEEPLTR_HEADFUL='1'
# must use capitals
# DEEPLTR_PROXY=SOCKS5://127.0.0.1:1080
