Support other languages/locales than English about thefuck HOT 10 CLOSED

I think it would be cool to use strace for detecting permission issues. It's still a heuristic, but it might be better.

Example:

> strace cat /etc/shadow 2>&1 | grep EACCES
open("/etc/shadow", O_RDONLY)           = -1 EACCES (Permission denied)

from thefuck.

Good idea.
Can someone try with apt? With pacman it can't see EACCES with strace.

from thefuck.

Yeah, I looked through the pacman strace and there's really nothing useful there. I wonder how it knows that you are not root. In any case, another possibility is to check that the command starts with pacman and returns 1.

Is it repeats with 1.11+?

To complete this issue. I suggest to translate the "fuck" alias. Indeed, for example, in french, "putain" can be a better alias.
Can we translate the "fuck" alias in other languages?

from thefuck.

Currently thefuck actually supports other languages. Because it is executed in environment with LANG=C, that means it only has to detect English strings in multilingual environment.

@AmarOk1412 It's quite simple, just add your own alias to your shell's configuration (e. g. ~/.bashrc):
alias putain='fuck'
I have used tmd (stands for tā mā de in Chinese) as an alias to fuck, it works well.

@Dugucloud. Yeap I know. I was just thinking about an automatic alias based on the computer language :). But it's not a very good idea.

from thefuck.

@AmarOk1412 anyone can use use whatever they want for an alias.

@nvbn What does this means? I didn't understood.

Because it is executed in environment with LANG=C

@Dugucloud Where did you found that? I have to change manually my locale back to english to make thefuck work

from thefuck.

@tuxayo I mean that you need to upgrade thefuck:

sudo pip install thefuck --upgrade
