Bug Description

SWScanner 0.2.2 using KDE 3.5.2 (Using Ubuntu with kubuntu-desktop installed, set to English-gb)

Right clicking on an essid and choosing configure produces a Network Settings menu. The text at the bottom of the window says "Execute this script after asociating" asociating should be associating.

Help>About SWScanner Author tab. "Original autor. Developer" autor should be author.

Help>SWScanner Handbook has documentation in Spanish (Manual de SWScanner).

In the main window - "Show all AccessPoints" should be "Show all Access Points" (the same for "AccessPoints in list" and the tooltips "Showing all AccessPoints in memory" and "Showing only active AccessPoints".

The main window check-box "Using sound" would sound more natural just as "Sound".

In the GPS frame "AP's" should be "APs" as it is a plural.

I've created a patch correcting the English in the original C++ - it's not a localisation issue - it's in the original code. I've corrected all errors I could find - more than in this bug report.

I don't know how the pot file is created as that contains the old text and I haven't touched.

I haven't worked on the manual as I have no Spanish - the English manual is on upstream's todo list.

I haven't credited myself as I don't know what the protocol is. We should also send this upstream.
