DESCRIPTION

Uses WWW::Babelfish to translate the log messages into a different language. All filters downstream from this one see log messages in the new language. Of course, there are no permanent changes to the revision properties.

This filter takes two arguments indicating the source and destination languages of the log messages. The first argument is the two-letter ISO code for the source language. The second argument is the two-letter ISO code for the destination language. If only one argument is supplied, the source language is assumed to be English. Here are some examples

> svk log --filter 'babelfish de'
[English to German]
> svk log --filter 'babelfish fr es'
[French to Spanish]
> svk log --filter 'babelfish es | babelfish es en'
[English to English via Spanish]

STASH/PROPERTY MODIFICATIONS

Babelfish modifies does not modify the stash. It modifies the 'svn:log' property for each revision, replacing the original text with the translated version.

BUGS

There is a problem with non-ASCII characters in the output. I'm not sure if this is my problem or something from WWW::Babelfish.
