msgid "GRAMPS is a software package designed for genealogical research. Although similar to other genealogical programs, GRAMPS offers some unique and powerful features, which we'll discuss below."
msgid "GRAMPS is an Open Source Software package, which means you are free to make copies and distribute it to anyone you like. It's developed and maintained by a worldwide team of volunteers whose goal is to make GRAMPS powerful, yet easy to use."
msgid "Most genealogy programs allow you to enter information about your ancestors and descendants. Typically, they can display family relationships through charts, graphs, or reports. Some allow you to include pictures or other media. Most let you include information about people even if those people are not related to the primary family you happen to be researching. And they may include features that let you exchange data with other programs and print different types of reports."
msgid "GRAMPS has all these capabilities and more. Notably, it allows you to integrate bits and pieces of data as they arise from your research and to put them in one place -- your computer. You can then use your computer to manipulate, correlate, and analyze your data, rather than messing with reams of paper."
msgid "Select GRAMPS from the list of programs displayed in your computer's Applications menu. (The location and appearance of this menu vary slightly from one distribution of Linux to another. On the default GNOME desktop, you'll find GRAMPS in the <menuchoice><guimenu>Applications</guimenu><guisubmenu>Other</guisubmenu></menuchoice> menu."
msgid "If you're adept with Linux and like to work from the command line, you can start GRAMPS by calling up a terminal window, typing <command>gramps</command>, and then pressing <keycap>Enter</keycap>."
msgid "If you would like GRAMPS to open a specific database or to import a specific file on startup, you can supply the filename as a command line argument:"
msgid "where <filename>filename.grdb</filename> is the name of the file you want to open. The command line provides many more ways to start GRAMPS and perform different tasks."
msgid "If GRAMPS is started without a database selected, the initial screen will have little functionality. Most operations will not be available. To load a database, select either <guibutton>New</guibutton> to create a new database, or <guibutton>Open</guibutton> to open an existing database. GRAMPS keeps track of your recently opened databases, and these can be selected by clicking on the arrow next to the <guibutton>Open</guibutton> button and choosing from the drop down menu."
msgid "This item opens your web browser to the GRAMPS mailing list page. At this page, you can browse the mailing list archives or join the mailing list"
msgid "Choose this item to file a bug report in our bug tracking system. (Remember, GRAMPS is a living project. We want to know about any problems you encounter so we can work to solve them for everyone's benefit.)"
msgid "The toolbar is located right below the menubar. It gives you access to the most frequently used functions of GRAMPS. You can set options that control how it appears by going to <menuchoice><guimenu>Edit</guimenu><guisubmenu>Preferences</guisubmenu></menuchoice>. You can also hide it entirely by going to <menuchoice><guimenu>View</guimenu><guisubmenu>Toolbar</guisubmenu></menuchoice>."
msgid "The Progress Bar is located in the lower left corner of the GRAMPS window. It displays the progress of time consuming operations, such as opening and saving large databases, importing and exporting to other formats, generating web sites, etc. When you are not doing these types of operations, the Progress Bar is not shown."
msgid "The Status Bar is located to the right of the Progress Bar, on the very bottom of the GRAMPS window. It displays information about current GRAMPS activity and contextual information about the selected items."
msgid "The largest area in the center of the GRAMPS window is the display area. What it displays depends on the currently selected View. We'll discuss Views in detail below."
msgid "Genealogical information is very broad and can be extremely detailed. Displaying it poses a challenge that GRAMPS takes on by dividing and organizing the information into a series of Views. Each View displays a portion of the total information, selected according to a particular category. This will become clearer as we explore the different Views, listed below:"
msgid "As mentioned above there are nine different Views. In addition, there are two different Viewing Modes. You can tell at a glance which Viewing Mode you are in: If you see icons listed vertically in a sidebar at the left of the window, you are in the Sidebar Viewing Mode. If instead you see a series of \"notebook tabs\" (labeled People, Relationships, Family List, Pedigree, Events, Sources, Places, Media and Repositories) that run horizontally across the window, then you are in the Tabbed Viewing Mode. You can switch from one Viewing Mode to another by selecting <menuchoice><guimenu>View</guimenu><guimenuitem>Sidebar</guimenuitem></menuchoice> from the Sidebar menu item."
msgid "The People View lists the people stored in the database. You'll note that people are grouped according to their family names. To the left of each family name is typically either an arrow or some other type of indicator. Clicking it once will reveal the entire list of people sharing that name. Clicking the indicator again will \"roll up\" the list and show only the family name."
msgid "By default, the People View, displays the several columns of information about each person. You can add or remove columns to and from the display by calling up the <guilabel>Column Editor</guilabel> dialog ( <menuchoice><guimenu>Edit</guimenu><guimenuitem>Column Editor</guimenuitem></menuchoice>) and checking or unchecking the boxes listed. You can also change the position of a column in People View by clicking and dragging it to a new position in the Editor. Once you have made the changes you want, click <guibutton>OK</guibutton> to exit the Editor and see your changes in the People View."
msgid "Genealogical databases can contain information on many people, families, places, and objects. It's therefore possible for a View to contain a long list of data that's difficult to work with. GRAMPS gives you two different means for controlling this condition by allowing you to filter a list to a more manageable size. These methods are Search and Filtering. A search will search the text displayed in list, whereas filters display people whose data match the criteria of the filter."
msgid "Search is a simple but fast method of searching the columns displayed on the screen. Typing the characters into the Search box and clicking the Find button will display only lines that match the text."
msgid "Alternatively, you can enable the Filter sidebar, which will be displayed on the right hand side of the display. When the filter sidebar is displayed, the Search bar is not displayed. The Filter side bar allows you to interactively build a set of filter rules that can be applied to the display. The filter is applied based on the rules and the data, not on the screen display."
msgid "Searching only searches for exact text matches. If the date displayed is \"Jan 1, 2000\", a search of \"1/1/2000\" will fail, but a filter of \"1/1/2000\" will match."
msgid "The Relationships View displays the all the relationships of the Active Person (the selected person). Specifically, it shows his or her parents, siblings, spouses, and children."
msgid "The Relationships View is designed to allow for quick navigation. You can quickly change the Active Person simply by clicking the name of any person listed on the page. Each name is actually a hypertext link, similar to a web page."
msgid "At the top of the screen, name, ID, birth, and death information of the Active Person is displayed. If a photo of the person is available, it is shown on the right hand side. Next to the person's name is a symbol indicating gender, and an Edit button. Clicking the <guibutton>Edit</guibutton> button will allow you to edit all of the person's individual information in an Edit Person dialog."
msgid "The next section, the Parents section, displays the families in which the person is a child. Since it is possible for a person to have multiple sets of parents, it is possible to have several Parents sections."
msgid "You can control how much information is displayed by using the <guimenu>View</guimenu> menu. The view menu allows you to show or hide details (the birth and death information) and to show or hide siblings. Next to each person listed is an <guibutton>Edit</guibutton> button, which will allow you to edit all the details of that particular person."
msgid "You may add a new set of parents by either selecting the <guibutton>Add Parents</guibutton> or the <guibuttion>Share Parents</guibuttion>. The <guibutton>Add Parents</guibutton> button will create a new family with the Active Person listed as a child. The <guibutton>Share Parents</guibutton> button will allow you to choose from a list of existing families, and then add the person as a child to that family."
msgstr ""
#: C/gramps.xml:938(para)
msgid "You may edit an existing parents by selecting the <guibutton>Edit</guibutton> button next to the parents. If you select the <guibutton>Delete</guibutton> next to a set of parents, then the Active Person will be removed as a child from the parents. This button does not delete the parents' relationship."
msgid "If you are not careful, it is possible to create multiple families with the same parents. This is rarely what the user wants to do. If you attempt to add a new family that has the same parents as an existing family, GRAMPS will issue a warning dialog. If you get this dialog, you should probably Cancel the edit, and then use the <guibutton>Select</guibutton> button to select the existing family."
msgid "Similar to the Parents section is the Family section, which displays families where the Active Person is a parent. Because it is possible to have mulitple familes, it is possible to have multiple Family sections. Each family section displays the spouse and any children."
msgid "We use the term <emphasis>spouse</emphasis> for sake of simplicity. However, please note that <emphasis>spouse</emphasis> may in fact be a domestic partner, a partner in a civil union, or various other similar relationships between two people. <emphasis>Spouse</emphasis> relationships are not required to be only between a male and female."
msgid "You may add a family by selecting the <guibutton>Add Spouse</guibutton> in the toolbar. This will create a new family with the Active Person listed as a father or mother."
msgid "Selecting the Edit button next to the spouse will allow you to edit the displayed family. Clicking the Delete button will remove the person from the displayed family."
msgid "Removing a person from a family does not delete the family. The person is removed as the father or mother, and any other relationships in the family continue to exist."
msgid "We use the terms <emphasis>father</emphasis> and <emphasis>mother</emphasis> for the sake of simplicity. Even if there are no children in a family, the <emphasis>father</emphasis> and <emphasis>mother</emphasis> terminology is still used. In the case of male/male or female/female relationships, the <emphasis>father</emphasis> and <emphasis>mother</emphasis> labels should be considered to be convenience labels."
msgid "You can reorder the parents and spouses by selecting the <guibutton>Reorder</guibutton>. This option will only be enabled if more than one set of parents or more than one set of spouses exists for the Active Person. Selecting this button will display a dialog that will allow you to reorder the families."
msgid "The Family List View displays a list of all families in the database. From this view, you may add, edit, or delete families. The default display lists the ID, Father, Mother, and Relationship. Children cannot be displayed on the screen in this view."
msgid "Unlike the Relationships View, clicking the Remove button in this view will remove the family from the database. All people will remain, but all relationships between the people in the family will be removed."
msgid "The Pedigree View displays a family tree of the Active Person's ancestors. The Pedigree View shows up to five generations, depending on the size of the window. Each person is indicated by a box labeled with his or her name, birth and death information, and optionally an image if available. Two lines branch from each box. The top one shows the person's father and the bottom one the mother. Solid lines represent birth relations, while dashed lines represent non-birth relations such as adoption, step-parenthood, guardianship, etc."
msgid "To the left of the Active Person is a left arrow button. If the Active Person has children, clicking this button expands a list of the Active Person's children. Selecting one of the children makes that child the Active Person."
msgid "The appearance of the children's names in the menu differentiates the <emphasis>dead ends</emphasis> of the tree from the continuing branches. Children who have children themselves appear in the menu in the boldface and italic type, while children without children (<emphasis>dead ends</emphasis>) appear in a regular font. If the Active Person has only one child, no menu will be displayed (since there is only one choice) and the child will become the Active Person when the arrow button is clicked."
msgid "The right-hand side of the window shows two right arrow buttons. When the top button is clicked, the Father of the Active Person becomes the Active Person. When the bottom button is clicked, the Mother of the Active Person becomes the Active Person."
msgid "Right-clicking on any person's box in the Pedigree View will bring up the \"context menu\". Among other useful items, the context menu has sub-menus listing <guilabel>Spouses</guilabel>, <guilabel>Siblings</guilabel>, <guilabel>Children</guilabel>, and <guilabel>Parents</guilabel> of that person. \"Greyed-out\" sub-menus indicate the absence of the data in the appropriate category. Similar to the children menu above, Childrens' and Parents' menus distinguish continuing lines from dead ends."
msgid "New in version 2.2 is the inclusion of an Events View. Events can be shared between multiple people and multiple families. The Events View lists the all the events recorded in the database. The default view displays the <guilabel>Description</guilabel>, <guilabel>ID</guilabel>, <guilabel>Type</guilabel>, <guilabel>Date</guilabel>, <guilabel>Place</guilabel> and <guilabel>Cause</guilabel> of the event."
msgid "Because events can be shared, you should take the extra time to give each event a unique and meaningful description. This will help you find the correct event if you decide to share events."
msgid "The list of Events can be sorted in the usual manner, by clicking on the column heading. Clcking once sorts in ascending order, clicking again sorts in descending order. The <guilabel>Column Editor</guilabel> dialog can be used to add, remove and rearrange the displayed columns."
msgid "Sources View lists the sources of certain information stored in the database. These can include various documents (birth, death, and marriage certificates, etc.), books, films, journals, private diaries, - nearly anything that can provide genealogical evidence. GRAMPS gives you the option to provide a source for each event you record (births, deaths, marriages, etc.). The Sources View lists the <guilabel>Title</guilabel>, <guilabel>ID</guilabel>, and <guilabel>Author</guilabel> of the source, as well as any <guilabel>Publication</guilabel> information that may be associated with it."
msgid "The list of Sources can be sorted by clicking on a column heading. Clicking once sorts in ascending order, clicking again sorts in descending order. The <guilabel>Column Editor</guilabel> dialog can be used to add, remove and rearrange the displayed columns."
msgid "The Places View lists the geographical places in which the events of the database took place. These could be places of birth, death, and marriages of people, as well as their home, employment, education addresses, or any other conceivable reference to the geographical location. The Places View lists the places' <guilabel>Name</guilabel>, <guilabel>ID</guilabel>, <guilabel>Church Parish</guilabel>, <guilabel>City</guilabel>, <guilabel>County</guilabel>, <guilabel>State</guilabel>, and <guilabel>Country</guilabel>. All of these columns can be used for sorting by clicking on a column heading. Clicking once sorts in ascending order, clicking again sorts in descending order. The <guilabel>Column Editor</guilabel> dialog may be used to add, remove and rearrange the displayed columns."
msgid "If a place has been highlighted, you may select the <guibutton>Google Maps</guibutton> button to attempt to display the place in a web browser. Your default web browser should open, attempting to use either the longitude and lattitude coordinates or the place name to display the location using the Google Maps web site. This feature is limited, and may not always produce the results you desire."
msgid "The Media View is a list of Media Objects used in the database. Media Objects are any files that relate somehow to the stored genealogical data. Technically, any file can be stored as a Media Object. Most frequently, these are images, audio files, animation files, etc. The list box on the bottom lists the <guilabel>Name</guilabel>, <guilabel>ID</guilabel>, <guilabel>Type</guilabel>, and <guilabel>Path</guilabel> of the Media Object. The <guilabel>Column Editor</guilabel> dialog may be used to rearrange the displayed columns, which obey usual sorting rules. The top part of the GRAMPS window shows a preview (if available) and information about the Media Object."
msgid "Version 2.2 adds support for Repositories. A repository can be thought of as a collection of sources. Each source in the database can reference a repository (such as a library) in which it belongs. The functionality of the Repositories View is similar to the other views."
msgid "Now we turn to a detailed exploration of the day-to-day use of GRAMPS. First, we should point out that GRAMPS often offers more than one way to do the same task. We'll try to point out some of these alternatives where appropriate."
msgid "To start a new database, choose <menuchoice><guimenu>File</guimenu><guimenuitem>New</guimenuitem></menuchoice> or select the <guibutton>New</guibutton> button from the toolbar. You will then be asked to give the new database a name."
msgid "GRAMPS stores your data in a Berkeley database, sometimes known as BSDDB. These files have \".grdb\" as their default extension. The extension is automatically added to your filename."
msgid "To open a database, either choose <menuchoice><guimenu>File</guimenu><guimenuitem>Open</guimenuitem></menuchoice> or click the <guibutton>Open</guibutton> button on the Toolbar. The <guilabel>Open database</guilabel> dialog will appear and you'll see a list of files. If you don't see the file you're looking for, make sure the All files filter is selected. (This dialog has a \"filetype\" filter, meaning it may only be showing files that have a certain extension.)"
msgid "To open a recently accessed database, choose either <menuchoice><guimenu>File</guimenu><guimenuitem>Open Recent</guimenuitem></menuchoice> or the down arrow next to the <guibutton>Open</guibutton> button and select the filename from the list."
msgid "If you do not have \"write permissions\" for the selected database, it will be opened in a Read Only mode. In this mode, the data may be viewed, but no changes will be made to the database. To indicate this mode, the title of the main window will be appended with <guilabel>(Read Only)</guilabel> text."
msgid "GRAMPS allows you to open certain databases that have not been saved in GRAMPS' own file format. These include XML and GEDCOM databases. But you should be aware that if the XML or GEDCOM database is relatively large, you may encounter some performance problems. These can be avoided by creating a new GRAMPS database and importing your XML/GEDCOM data into it."
msgid "XML and GEDCOM databases require all data to be held in memory. GRAMPS' native grdb format does not. Thus, a database with a grdb format can access data quicker and more efficiently."
msgid "Please keep in mind that some information in a GEDCOM file may be lost during import into GRAMPS. Simply opening and viewing the file will not change it. However, if any changes were made and they were not abandoned upon exit, exiting GRAMPS will save the data, with possible data loss."
msgid "GRAMPS saves your changes as soon as you apply them. This means, for example, that any time you click <guibutton>OK</guibutton> when using GRAMPS, your changes are immediately recorded and saved. There is no separate \"save\" command (although there is a \"save as\" command that we'll discuss later.)"
msgid "You can undo changes you've made by selecting <menuchoice><guimenu>Edit</guimenu><guimenuitem>Undo</guimenuitem></menuchoice>. If you select this command repeatedly, your most recent changes will be undone one at a time. To roll back multple commands at a time, you can using the <guilabel>Undo History</guilabel> dialog available from the <guilabel>Edit</guilabel> menu."
msgid "If you want to return your database to the way it was when you opened it, select <menuchoice><guimenu>File</guimenu><guimenuitem>Abandon changes and quit</guimenuitem></menuchoice>. (This is just like quitting without saving in other programs.)"
msgid "If you would like to save your database under a different name, you can do so by choosing <menuchoice><guimenu>File</guimenu><guimenuitem>Save as...</guimenuitem></menuchoice> and specifying the name (and, optionally, the format) of your new database. Note that <guimenuitem>Save as</guimenuitem> will allow you to continue editing the newly saved database. If this is not what you want to do, you may wish to use the <guimenuitem>Export</guimenuitem> command instead."
msgid "Importing allows you to bring data from other genealogy programs into a GRAMPS database. Currently, GRAMPS can import data from the following formats:"
msgid "Please recognize that importing a database is different from opening a database. When you import, you are actually bringing data from one database into a GRAMPS database. When you open a file, you are editing your original file."
msgid "To import data, select <menuchoice><guimenu>File</guimenu><guisubmenu>Import</guisubmenu></menuchoice>. The <guilabel>Import database</guilabel> dialog will open, asking you to specify the file you wish to import."
msgid "It is important to note that the importing process is not perfect for GEDCOM and GeneWeb databases. There is a chance that some of the data in these databases will not be imported into GRAMPS."
msgid "The GRAMPS database (grdb), GRAMPS XML, and GRAMPS package are all native GRAMPS formats. There is no risk of information loss when import or exporting to these formats."
msgid "The native GRAMPS database format is a specific form of Berkeley database (BSDDB) with a special structure of data tables. This format is binary and architecture-dependent. It is very quick and efficient, but not generally portable across computers with different binary architecture (e.g. i386 vs alpha)."
msgid "The GRAMPS XML file was the default format for older versions of GRAMPS. Unlike the grdb format, it is architecture independent and human-readable. The database may also have references to non-local (external) media objects, therefore it is not guaranteed to be completely portable. The GRAMPS XML database is created by saving ( <menuchoice><guimenu>File</guimenu><guimenuitem>Save As...</guimenuitem></menuchoice> ) or exporting ( <menuchoice><guimenu>File</guimenu><guimenuitem>Export...</guimenuitem></menuchoice> ) data in that format"
msgid "The GRAMPS package is a compressed archive containing the GRAMPS XML file and all media objects (images, sound files, etc.) to which the database refers. Because it contains all the media objects, this format is completely portable. The GRAMPS package is created by exporting ( <menuchoice><guimenu>File</guimenu><guimenuitem>Export...</guimenuitem></menuchoice> ) data in that format."
msgid "If you import information from another GRAMPS database or GRAMPS XML database, you will see the progress of the operation in the progress bar of GRAMPS' main window."
msgid "Exporting allows you to share any portion of your GRAMPS database with other researchers as well as to enable you to transfer your data to another computer. Currently, GRAMPS can export data to the following formats: GRAMPS database (grdb), GRAMPS XML, GEDCOM, GRAMPS package, Web Family Tree, and GeneWeb."
msgid "When you export, you are saving a copy of the currently opened database. Exporting creates another file with a copy of your data. Note that the database that remains opened in your GRAMPS window is NOT the file saved by your export. Additional editing of the currently opened database will not alter the copy produced by the export."
msgid "To export data, choose <menuchoice><guimenu>File</guimenu><guimenuitem>Export</guimenuitem></menuchoice>. This will bring up the <guilabel>Export</guilabel> assistant. Its pages will guide you through the format selection (see <xref linkend=\"export-druid-fig\"/>), file selection, and format specific export options (see <xref linkend=\"gedcom-export-fig\"/>). After a final confirmation page, the export will be performed according to the choices you have made. At any time, you can click the <guibutton>Back</guibutton> and revise any selection, and then go forward to redo the export."
msgid "GRAMPS allows you to export a database into the common GEDCOM format. It provides options that allow you to fine tune your export (see <xref linkend=\"gedcom-export-fig\"/>)."
msgid "Since different languages use different characters, it is important to tell a GEDCOM file what character set is used. The two formats traditionally accepted are ASCII and ANSEL. Since all ASCII characters are valid ANSEL characters, GRAMPS does not provide an option for ASCII."
msgid "Because ANSEL is not commonly used, some genealogy programs will accept ANSI (more commonly know as ISO-8859-1) and Unicode character sets. Only select ANSI or Unicode if you know any program that attempts to read the GEDCOM file will understand these character sets."
msgid "While GEDCOM is a standard, not every program implements it in the same way. This can lead to data loss. GRAMPS can reduce the data loss in some cases. You can tell GRAMPS what program is the target, and GRAMPS will customize the exported file for that program. If your program is not listed, choose the \"GEDCOM 5.5 Standard\"."
msgid "Check this box to limit the information exported for living people. This means that all information concerning their birth, death, addresses, significant events, etc., will be omitted in the exported GEDCOM file. If you choose this option, you will be given additional options to limit further the data on living people. For example, you can choose to substitute the word \"Living\" for the first name; you can exclude notes; and you can exclude sources for living people."
msgid "Sometimes, it is not always obvious from the data if someone is actually alive. GRAMPS uses an advanced algorithm to try to determine if a person could still be alive. Remember, GRAMPS is making its best guess, and it may not always be able to guess correctly all the time. Please double check your data."
msgid "This option allows specify where your image files are located. This is useful when you are transfering your GEDCOM file from one computer to another. It tells the program that is importing the data where your images are."
msgid "Exporting to the GRAMPS native format will simply make a copy of your data under another name. Exporting to this format can also be useful if you have directly opened an XML or GEDCOM file and would like to save it as the grdb file."
msgid "Exporting into GRAMPS XML format will produce a database compatible with the previous versions of GRAMPS. As XML is a text-based human-readable format, you may also use it to take a look at your data."
msgid "Exporting to the GRAMPS package format will create a compressed file that contains the database and copies of all associated media files. This is useful if you want to move your database to another computer or to share it with someone."
msgid "Exporting to CD will prepare your database and copies of all media object files for recording onto a CD. To actually burn the CD, you will need to go to the GNOME <guilabel>burn:///</guilabel> location, which can be accessed by navigating through Nautilus: After exporting to CD, select <menuchoice><guimenu>Go</guimenu><guisubmenu>CD Creator</guisubmenu></menuchoice> in the Nautilus menu. Your database directory will show up. To burn it to the CD, click the CD icon on the Nautilus toolbar, or select <menuchoice><guimenu>File</guimenu><guisubmenu>Write to CD</guisubmenu></menuchoice> in the Nautilus menu."
msgid "Exporting to Web Family Tree will create a text file that can be used by the Web Family Tree program. Export options include filter selection and the ability to limit data on living people to that of their family ties."
msgid "Exporting to GeneWeb will save a copy of your data into a popular web genealogy format. To find out more about GeneWeb and its format, visit <ulink type=\"http\" url=\"http://cristal.inria.fr/~ddr/GeneWeb/en/\">http://cristal.inria.fr/~ddr/GeneWeb/en/</ulink>."
msgid "Exporting to vCalendar or vCard will save information in a format used in many calendaring and addressbook applications, sometimes called PIM for Personal Information Manager."
msgid "This section is designed to give you the basic knowledge necessary to start putting your genealogical information into GRAMPS. It will explain how to enter people into the database and how to specify their family relationships. (A more detailed explanation will follow in the section entitled <xref linkend=\"gramps-edit-complete\"/>.)"
msgid "In addition to interacting with GRAMPS through menu items and buttons, you can use its extensive set of \"keybindings.\" For more information, see <xref linkend=\"append-keybind\"/>."
msgid "There are multiple ways to add a person to the database. We will cover some of them as we proceed. The simplest way to enter a person to add them from the People View. While you are in the People View (<xref linkend=\"side-nofilt-fig\"/>), click the <guibutton>Add</guibutton> on the toolbar. Enter any data you know about this person into the <guilabel>Edit Person</guilabel> dialog (see <xref linkend=\"edit-pers-fig\"/> for details)."
msgid "To edit information about a person already present in the database, select the person from the People View and click the <guibutton>Edit</guibutton> button on the toolbar."
msgid "You can also use <guilabel>Add...</guilabel> and <guilabel>Edit...</guilabel> menu items available under <guimenu>Edit</guimenu>. Or you can right-click on the person and select <guilabel>Add...</guilabel> or <guilabel>Edit...</guilabel> from the context menu that pops up."
msgid "There are two primary ways to specify relationships between people - using the Relationships View and using the Edit Family dialog from the Family List View. The Family List is usually used to build all the relationships within a single family at a time. The Relationships View is usually used to build multiple relationships to a single person."
msgid "To specify a new relationship to the Active Person, switch to the Relationships View (<xref linkend=\"family-fig\"/>) and you'll see this individual indicated as the \"Active Person\". Next to the <guilabel>Family</guilabel> label is a <guibutton>Add</guibutton> button (typically represented by a <guibutton>+</guibutton> sign). Clicking the <guibutton>Add</guibutton> button will display the Edit Family dialog with the Active Person set as either the father or the mother."
msgid "Now a question: Does the person who will form the relationship with the Active Person already exist in the database? If yes, click the <guibutton>Select</guibutton> button to the other person. You'll then be able to browse through the list of people in the database to select the one you want. If not, click the <guibutton>Add</guibutton> button. This will allow you to add a new person to the database and to specify the relationship this person has to the Active Person."
msgid "By default, GRAMPS filters the displayed list to show only those people who could theoretically have a relationship with the Active Person.

msgid "The previous section offered you a quick overview of how to enter and edit data in GRAMPS. This section continues that discussion in much greater detail."
msgid "As we have seen above, GRAMPS offers you a series of Views. Each of these Views gives you opportunities to enter and edit information. In fact, you can often get to the same information from different Views."
msgid "In GRAMPS, information is entered and edited through what we call dialogs. Since we use that term frequently, we should define what we mean by it:"
msgid "A dialog is a pop-up window that provides one or more forms for entering and editing data that fits a certain category. Examples in GRAMPS include the <guilabel>Edit Person</guilabel> dialog and the <guilabel>Family Editor</guilabel> dialog, among many others."
msgid "A dialog often includes a series of \"notebook tabs\" that group the information into subcategories. For example, the Edit Person dialog has notebook tabs for subcategories such as Events, Attributes, Addresses, and Notes, among others."
msgid "In most cases, GRAMPS uses a <guibutton>+</guibutton> to correspond to <guibutton>Add</guibutton>, a <guibutton>-</guibutton> correspond to <guibutton>Remove</guibutton>, and an icon of a pen on a sheet of paper to denote <guibutton>Edit</guibutton>. We will continue referring to the latter as the <guibutton>Edit</guibutton> button, while using <guibutton>+</guibutton> and <guibutton>-</guibutton> to denote the two former buttons."
msgid "Information about people is entered and edited through the <guilabel>Edit Person</guilabel> dialog. This dialog can be invoked from different Views in the following ways:"
msgid "The top of the window shows the basic information about the person whose data is being edited. Below are several \"notebook tabs\" containing different categories of available information. Click any tab to view and edit its contents. Clicking the <guibutton>OK</guibutton> button at the bottom will apply all the changes made in all tabs and close the dialog window. Clicking the <guibutton>Cancel</guibutton> button will close the window without applying any changes. If any data in any tabs were modified, an alert window will appear, prompting you to choose from the following options: close the dialog without saving changes, cancel the initial cancel request, or save the changes."
msgid "Clicking <guibutton>OK</guibutton> will immediately save changes to the database. There is no need for a Save operation, since all changes are immediate."
msgid "includes <guilabel>Given name</guilabel>, <guilabel>Family name</guilabel>, <guilabel>Family prefix</guilabel> (such as \"de\" or \"van\"), <guilabel>Suffix</guilabel> (e.g. Jr. or III), <guilabel>Title</guilabel> (e.g. Dr. or Rev.), <guilabel>Nickname</guilabel> (Bob for Robert), <guilabel>Type</guilabel> of the name (birth name, married name, etc.). Some of these <guilabel>Family name</guilabel> and <guilabel>Type</guilabel> fields provide \"autocompletion\" feature: as you type in these fields, a menu appears below the field containing database entries that match your partial input. This gives you a shortcut by letting you select an entry that already exists in the database rather than having to type it all out. You can select the entry using your mouse or using your arrow and <keycap>Enter</keycap> keys."
msgid "The <guilabel>Edit</guilabel> (that is, the \"pen and paper\" icon) next to the <guilabel>Prefix</guilabel> entry field invokes the <guilabel>Name Editor</guilabel> dialog. This dialog allows editing the preferred name in full detail (see <xref linkend=\"adv-an\"/>)."
msgid "The <guilabel>Gender</guilabel> menu offers the choice of person's gender : <guilabel>male</guilabel>, <guilabel>female</guilabel>, and <guilabel>unknown</guilabel>."
msgid "The field <guilabel>ID</guilabel> displays the GRAMPS ID number which identifies the user in the database. This value helps you distiguish between people who have the same name. You may enter any unique value you want. If you do not provide a value, GRAMPS will automatically select a value for you."
msgid "The <guilabel>Events</guilabel> tab lets you view and edit any events relevant to the person. The bottom part of the window lists all such events stored in the database. The top part shows the details of the currently selected event in the list (if any). The buttons <guibutton>+</guibutton>, <guibutton>Edit</guibutton>, and <guibutton>-</guibutton> allow you to add, modify, and remove an event record from the database. Note that the <guibutton>Edit</guibutton> and <guibutton>-</guibutton> buttons become available only when an event is selected from the list."
msgid "The <guilabel>Names</guilabel> tab lets you view and edit any alternate names the person may have. The bottom part of the window lists all alternate names for the person stored in the database. The top part shows the details of the currently selected name in the list (if any). The buttons <guibutton>+</guibutton>, <guibutton>Edit</guibutton>, and <guibutton>-</guibutton> allow the addition, modification, and removal of an alternate name from the database. Note that the Edit and - buttons become available only when an alternate name is selected from the list."
msgid "When you add a new name or edit an existing name, the <guilabel>Name Editor</guilabel> dialog is invoked. This dialog is described in the section below (see <xref linkend=\"adv-an\"/>)."
msgid "The <guilabel>Attributes</guilabel> tab lets you view and assign attributes to the person. You have complete freedom to define and use attributes. For example, attributes might be assigned to describe the person's physical characteristics or personality traits."
msgid "Note that each attribute listed in the <guilabel>Attribute</guilabel> dialog consists of two parts: the Attribute itself and a Value associated with that Attribute. This so-called \"Parameter-Value\" pairing can help you organize and systematize your research. For example, if you define \"Hair color\" as an Attribute for a person, \"Hair Color\" will become a selectable Attribute for all other people. The Value of Hair Color for person A might be red, and brown for person B. In similar fashion, you might define an Attribute like \"Generosity\" and use the Value of \"Enormous\" to describe a particularly generous person."
msgid "The bottom part of the dialog window displays the list of all Attributes stored in the database. The top part shows the details of the currently selected attribute in the list (if any). The buttons <guibutton>+</guibutton>, <guibutton>Edit</guibutton>, and <guibutton>-</guibutton> let you add, modify, and remove an attribute record from the database. Note that the <guibutton>Edit</guibutton> and <guibutton>-</guibutton> buttons become available only when an attribute is selected from the list."
msgid "The <guilabel>Addresses</guilabel> tab lets you view and record the various addresses of the person. The bottom part of the window lists all addresses stored in the database. The top part shows the details of the currently selected address in the list (if any). The buttons <guibutton>+</guibutton>, <guibutton>Edit</guibutton>, and <guibutton>-</guibutton> allow you to correspondingly add, modify, and remove an address record from the database. Note that the <guibutton>Edit</guibutton> and <guibutton>-</guibutton> buttons become available only when an address is selected from the list."
msgid "The <guilabel>Notes</guilabel> tab provides a place to record various items about the person that do not fit neatly into other categories. To add a note or modify existing notes simply edit the text in the text entry field."
msgid "The <guilabel>Format</guilabel> option lets you set the way the note will appear in reports and web pages. If you select \"Flowed,\" the text generated will have single spaces put in place of all multiple spaces, tabs, and single end-of-line characters. A blank line inserted between two blocks of text will signal a new paragraph; additional inserted lines will be ignored."
msgid "The <guilabel>Sources</guilabel> tab allows you to view and document the sources for the information you collect. These might be general sources that do not describe a specific event, but which nevertheless yield information about the person. For example, if Aunt Martha's memoirs mention her great-grandson Paul, the researcher may assume that this Paul actually existed and cite Aunt Martha's memoirs as the source that justifies this assumption."
msgid "Sources which document specific events are best recorded as sources of the event (under the <guilabel>Events</guilabel> tab) instead of as a source of the person. The person's <guilabel>Sources</guilabel> tab is best used for any sources not specificly connected to any other data."
msgid "The central part displays the list of all source references stored in the database in relation to the person. The buttons <guibutton>+</guibutton>, <guibutton>Edit</guibutton>, and <guibutton>-</guibutton> allow you to correspondingly add, modify, and remove a source reference to this person. Note that the <guibutton>Edit</guibutton> and <guibutton>-</guibutton> buttons become available only when a source reference is selected from the list."
msgid "The <guilabel>Gallery</guilabel> tab lets you view and store photos, videos, and other media objects that are associated with the person. The central part of the window lists all such media objects. Any object in the form of a valid image file will result in the display of a thumbnail view of the image. For other objects such as audio files, movie files, etc., a corresponding file type icon is displayed instead."
msgid "The first available image in the gallery will be also displayed in the <guilabel>Image</guilabel> area in the <guilabel>General</guilabel> tab."
msgid "The buttons <guibutton>+</guibutton>, <guibutton>Select</guibutton>, <guibutton>Edit</guibutton>, and <guibutton>-</guibutton> let you add a new image to the database, link to an image already stored in the database, modify an image, and remove a given media object from the person's gallery. Note that the <guibutton>Edit</guibutton> and <guibutton>-</guibutton> buttons become available only when a media object is selected from the list."
msgid "Removing a media object from a person's gallery does not remove it from the database. It only removes the reference to that object from this person's record."
msgid "The <guilabel>Internet</guilabel> tab displays Internet addresses relevant to the person. The bottom part lists all such Internet addresses and accompanying descriptions. The top part shows the details of the currently selected addresses in the list (if any). The buttons <guibutton>+</guibutton>, <guibutton>Edit</guibutton>, and <guibutton>-</guibutton> let you add, modify, and remove an Internet address. The \"Go\" button (represented by an icon having a green arrow and yellow circle) opens your web browser and takes you directly to the highlighted page. Note that the <guibutton>Edit</guibutton>, <guibutton>-</guibutton>, and <guibutton>Go</guibutton> buttons become available only when an address is selected from the list."
msgid "The <guilabel>Associations</guilabel> tab lets you view and edit information about the associations between people in the database. The associations may include Godparents, family friends, or any other types of associations you may wish to record."
msgid "The <guilabel>LDS</guilabel> (Latter Days Saints) tab lets you view and edit information about LDS ordinances of the person. These are LDS Baptism, Endowment, and Sealed to Parents ordinances, as labeled inside the tab. Each ordinance is described by its date, LDS temple, and Place where it happened. An additional pop-up menu, \"Parents,\" is available for the Sealed to Parents ordinance. Each ordinance can be further described through the selections available in the Status pop-up menu. It can also be include notes and references to sources through the corresponding <guibutton>Sources...</guibutton> and <guibutton>Note</guibutton> buttons."
msgid "This section describes how to enter and modify dates. Since dates are so important in genealogical research, GRAMPS takes special care to preserve and use any date information available."
msgid "Information can be entered into a date field by directly typing it or by invoking the Date selection dialog. Both methods will be discussed below, but first, we will cover some important features of dates as they are used in GRAMPS."
msgid "GRAMPS recognizes dates entered in a variety of formats. The default numeric format is that which is conventional for the environment is which GRAMPS is operating; that is, DD.MM.YYYY for most European countries, MM/DD/YYYY for the U.S., and so on."
msgid "Besides exact dates, GRAMPS recognizes many dates that are not regular: before, after, about, ranges and spans. It also understands the quality: estimated or calculated. Finally, it supports partial dates and many alternative calendars. Below is the list of date entry rules to allow precise date parsing."
msgid "The list only applys to the English version of GRAMPS. If you are using localized version of GRAMPS, your version may or may not provide a localized date parser. At the time of this writing, localized parsers exist for French, German, Russian, Finnish, Dutch and Spanish languages."
msgid "If the localized parser is available for your version, chances are that other rules are in effect. If there is no manual in your language yet, you may try following your instinct and go with the common ways of denoting dates in your language. If all else fails, use the <guilabel>Date selection</guilabel> dialog described below."
msgid "Dates that are not regular should start with the quality: <guilabel>estimated</guilabel> or <guilabel>calculated</guilabel>, if applicable. Example: est. 1961, or calc 2005. (Note that a quality does not need to be specified for regular dates.)"
msgid "After the quality should appear the type. If the type is <guilabel>before</guilabel>, <guilabel>after</guilabel>, or <guilabel>about</guilabel>, you scan specify the type by writing \"before\", \"after\" or \"about\". If the type is a range, write \"between DATE and DATE\", and if the type is a span, write \"from DATE to DATE\". patterns, where DATE is a single date."
msgid "Alternate calendars are calendars other than the Gregorian calendar. Currently, GRAMPS supports Hebrew, French Republican, Julian, Islamic, and Persian alternate calendars. To specify the calendar other than the default Gregorian, append the name of the calendar to the date string, e.g. \"January 9, 1905 (julian)\"."
msgid "The color circles are also referred to as the LED buttons. Clicking on an LED button will invoke the <guilabel>Date selection</guilabel> dialog described in detail below, see <xref linkend=\"adv-dates-gui\"/>"
msgid "A green circle means that the date is valid and complete regular date (e.g. May 24, 1961). In simple terms, green means that the date corresponds to a unique date."
msgid "Yellow circle means that the date is valid but is not a regular date. This could be the date of a different type: a before date (before May 25, 1962), an after date (after May, 1960), an about date (about May 23, 1961), a range (between May 1, 1961 and May 31, 1961), or a span (from May 1, 1961 to May 31, 1961). It can also be a complete single date, but with quality of Estimated or Calculated. Finally, it could be a partial date, i.e. a regular quality single date missing some portion, e.g. May 1961 or 1961."
msgid "Red circle means that the date is not recognized as a valid date (e.g. \"Christmas week of 61\", or \"the summer when I had surgery\"). In such a case the date will be stored as a text string and therefore cannot be compared other dates. As you can see, it is best to avoid such date entries. It would be better, for example, to enter a date of \"December 1961\" and then to add the note \"Christmas week of '61.\""
msgid "While the above parsing rules provide a guide for you to type in most common dates, you can also use <guilabel>Date selection</guilabel> dialog. The dialog is particularly useful for building a complex date or for simply insuring that your information is entered in a way GRAMPS will understand. The <guilabel>Date selection</guilabel> dialog can be invoked by clicking the colored circle button next to the date entry field."
msgid "The <guilabel>Calendar</guilabel> menu lets you choose a calendar other than the default Gregorian. The <guilabel>Quality</guilabel> menu gives you the choices of Regular, Estimated, or Calculated. The <guilabel>Type</guilabel> menu allows you establish the exact date type: Regular, Before, After, About, Range, Span, and Text only. You can set the <guilabel>Date</guilabel> by setting the day, the month, and the year. In the event that your date type is Range or Span, the <guilabel>Second date</guilabel> will be activated. Finally, the <guilabel>Text comment</guilabel> text entry field allows storing an arbitrary text string along with the date."
msgid "If you have an important comment to make about a date, you are better off doing so in a Note that corresponds to the event than in the Text comment field of the Date selection dialog. We recommend this for the following reason: If you enter a date by typing it directly into the date field (that is, not via the Date selector dialog), your entry will be copied and stored as the text comment string when GRAMPS parses the entered text. Thus, any comment that may have been there prior to the parsing will be overwritten."
msgid "Information about relationships is entered and edited through the <guilabel>Family Editor</guilabel> dialog. This dialog may be invoked in a number of ways:"
msgid "From Family List View: select the family in the list and then click the <guibutton>Edit</guibutton> button on the Toolbar, or double-click on the family."
msgid "From Pedigree View: point your mouse over the black line connecting the spouses, right-click and select <guilabel>Edit</guilabel> from the context menu, or double-click on the black line."
msgid "The top of the window shows the names of the people whose relationship is being edited, as well as their birth and death information. The main part of the window displays three <guilabel>Relationship Information</guilabel> fields and the seven notebook tabs representing different categories of information about the relationship.

msgid "The <guilabel>Sources</guilabel> tab lets you view and edit a list of references to the sources that provide evidence for the relationship. These might be documents that refer to the relationship, but which do not necessarily document it officially. For example, if Aunt Martha's memoirs mention that her great-grandson Paul was married, the researcher may take this as evidence of the relationship between Paul and his wife existed and cite the memoirs as the source for this assumption."
msgid "The buttons <guibutton>+</guibutton>, <guibutton>Edit</guibutton>, and <guibutton>-</guibutton> allow let you add, modify, and remove a source reference to this relationship.

msgid "As long as any database is open, GRAMPS is focused on a single person usually referred to as an Active Person. This allows you to view or modify the data concerning this person, his or her immediate family, etc. Navigating in the database (i.e. moving from person to person) is in fact nothing else but changing the Active Person. This section describes many alternative ways to navigate through the database using both the complex and the convenient interfaces GRAMPS provides. All these ways eventually accomplish the same thing, but some are more convenient than others, depending what you are doing in GRAMPS at the moment."
msgid "The most intuitive way to select an Active Person is to use the People View (see <xref linkend=\"people-view\"/>). When in the People View, just select the name of the desired person from the list by clicking that list entry. The person you have selected becomes active. The statusbar updates to reflect the change of the active person."
msgid "When in the Family View (see <xref linkend=\"relationships-view\"/>), you can easily navigate between the members of the displayed family as follows:"
msgid "To make the currently selected spouse the Active Person, click the double-arrow button to the right of the Active Person box. Alternatively, right-click into the spouse box and select <guilabel>Make the selected spouse an Active Person</guilabel> item from the context menu."
msgid "To make the currently selected parents the active family (thereby making father the Active Person and mother the selected spouse), click the right-arrow button to the right of the active person's parents box. Alternatively, right-click into the active person's parents box and select <guilabel>Make the selected parents the active family</guilabel> item from the context menu."
msgid "To make the currently selected spouse's parents the active family (thereby making father the Active Person and mother the selected spouse), click the right-arrow button to the right of the spouse's parents box. Alternatively, right-click into the spouse's parents box and select <guilabel>Make the selected parents the active family</guilabel> item from the context menu."
msgid "To make the currently selected child the Active Person, click the left-arrow button to the right of the children box. Alternatively, right-click into the children box and select <guilabel>Make the selected child an Active Person</guilabel> item from the context menu."
msgid "In addition to this, GRAMPS provides an extensive set of keyboard navigation options. The detailed reference to the key bindings is found in the <xref linkend=\"append-keybind\"/>."
msgid "The Pedigree View (see <xref linkend=\"pedigree-view\"/>) also allows you to move along the family tree. The benefit of this method is that you can see more than one generation of the family tree. Also, you can jump directly from a great-grandson to a great-grandfather without going through the intermediate generations."
msgid "Note that after changing the Active Person in the Pedigree View, the display is re-adjusted to show four generations, starting from the newly selected Active Person. When in the Pedigree View, you can easily navigate between the members of the displayed family tree as follows:"
msgid "To make a child of the currently Active Person (if any) the Active Person, click the left arrow button to the left of the corresponding box. If there is more than one child, the button expands to the menu listing the children to choose from."
msgid "To move the whole family tree one generation back, click on the corresponding right arrow button on the right-hand side of the display area. Clicking the upper button will move the tree along the paternal line. Clicking the lower button will move the tree along the maternal line."
msgid "Clicking either of these buttons is completely equivalent to double-clicking the lines connecting to the left of the corresponding boxes for father and mother."
msgid "You can also quickly access any of the spouses, siblings, children, or parents of any displayed person. To do this, move the mouse over the desired person's box and right-click to invoke a context menu. The appropriate menu items will contain submenus listing all spouses, siblings, children, and parents of the corresponding person."
msgid "One and only one person in the database can be selected as the Home person. Once the Home person is selected, moving to that person becomes a matter of a single click, regardless of which view you are using at the moment."
msgid "To set the Home person, first navigate to that person using any method you like. Then choose <menuchoice><guimenu>Edit</guimenu><guimenuitem>Set Home person</guimenuitem></menuchoice>. Once this is done, you can move to the Home person from anywhere in the database by simply clicking the <guibutton>Home</guibutton> icon on the toolbar. You can also choose <menuchoice><guimenu>Go</guimenu><guimenuitem>Home</guimenuitem></menuchoice> from the menu or select <guilabel>Home</guilabel> item from any context menu available on the right click."
msgid "GRAMPS also features a powerful set of history-based navigation tools. These tools are similar to those commonly used in web browsers. They include <guilabel>Back</guilabel> and <guilabel>Forward</guilabel> items available from the <menuchoice><guimenu>Go</guimenu></menuchoice> menu, context menus (available in People, Family, and Pedigree views), and the toolbar buttons. They also include the list of the recent selections available under the <menuchoice><guimenu>Go</guimenu></menuchoice> menu that allows you to jump directly to any of the recent selections. Finally, right-clicking on the <guibutton>Back</guibutton> and <guibutton>Forward</guibutton> toolbar buttons invokes the popup menu with corresponding portion of the history. Select any item from the menu to jump directly to it."
msgid "Similar to setting the Home person, you can bookmark other people from the database to simplify further navigation. To bookmark a person, first navigate to that person, then choose <menuchoice><guimenu>Bookmarks</guimenu><guimenuitem>Add bookmark</guimenuitem></menuchoice>. To move to that person from anywhere in the database, choose <menuchoice><guimenu>Bookmarks</guimenu><guisubmenu>Go to bookmark</guisubmenu><guimenuitem><replaceable>Person's name</replaceable></guimenuitem></menuchoice>."
msgid "You can manage your bookmarks by choosing <menuchoice><guimenu>Bookmarks</guimenu><guimenuitem>Edit bookmarks...</guimenuitem></menuchoice>. This opens the following <guilabel>Edit Bookmarks</guilabel> dialog with the list of bookmarks and the controls to modify this list."
msgid "To find a record in a database, first switch to the appropriate View that provides the list of the desired records: People, Sources, Places, or Media. Then start typing the name of a person or the title of a Source, Place, or Media object that you are looking for, respectively. You may also press <keycap>Ctrl+F</keycap> to turn on the search mode, but simply staring to type is also enough."
msgid "For more complex people searches you may want to use filters. Enable filter controls by choosing <menuchoice><guimenu>View</guimenu><guimenuitem>Filter</guimenuitem></menuchoice>, select the desired filter, and click <guibutton>Apply</guibutton>. For details, see <xref linkend=\"filters\"/>"
msgid "Reports are the most common form of the output produced by genealogical research. The majority of genealogical software puts a lot of emphasis on developing nice looking reports. GRAMPS is no exception in this regard, offering a choice of a variety of reports. GRAMPS can generate reports in a multitude of open formats, both text based and graphical. GRAMPS can also produce screen based reports that are convenient for viewing a summary of your database. Finally, GRAMPS can generate a web site suitable for immediate posting on the Internet. All of these are almost infinitely flexible. If you wish to modify or extend the default format of GRAMPS report, you can design and choose the style for each of your reports."
msgid "All reports can be accessed through the menu by choosing <menuchoice><guimenu>Reports</guimenu><guisubmenu><replaceable>Report Type</replaceable></guisubmenu><guimenuitem><replaceable>Particular Report</replaceable></guimenuitem></menuchoice>. Alternatively, you can browse the complete selection of available reports along with their brief descriptions in a <guilabel>Report Selection</guilabel> dialog invoked by clicking the <guibutton>Reports</guibutton> icon on the toolbar."
msgid "Many of the graphical reports allow you to customize the information on the display. Variable substitutions are used to substitute date for a particular symbol. There are two styles of variables. The difference between the two styles is how empty data is handled."
msgid "The first style of variables are preceeded by a '$'. If the variable evaluates to an empty string, the variable is replaced with the empty string. The second style of variables are preceeded by a '%'. If the variable evaluates to an empty string, the line that contains the variable is removed from the output."
msgid "The Book Report creates a single document (i.e. a Book) containing a collection of graphical and textual reports. Consequently, this allows for a very rich set of documents that GRAMPS can produce."
msgid "The <guilabel>Book name</guilabel> text entry field is used to save the book (a set of configured selections) for future use. The top pane lists the items available for inclusion in the book. The bottom pane lists the currently selected items in the order they will appear in the book."
msgid "The horizontal set of buttons by the <guilabel>Book name</guilabel> field operates on the whole book. Click the <guibutton>Clear</guibutton> button to clear all items from the current book. Click the <guibutton>Save</guibutton> button to save the current book (under the name typed in the <guilabel>Book name</guilabel> text entry field) for future use."
msgid "Click the <guibutton>Open</guibutton> button to load the book from the list of previously saved books. Finally, click the <guibutton>Edit books</guibutton> button to invoke the editable list of available books."
msgid "The vertical set of buttons to the right of the bottom pane operates on the selected book item. Click the <guibutton>Add</guibutton> button to add selected item from the available list to the current book. Click the <guibutton>Remove</guibutton> button to remove an item from the current book. Use <guibutton>Up</guibutton> and <guibutton>Down</guibutton> to change the items order in the current book. Click the <guibutton>Setup</guibutton> button to configure the options of the selected item of the current book."
msgid "The configuration dialogs invoked by <guibutton>Setup</guibutton> are item-specific. If you choose not to configure the item, same defaults will be used for all needed options. The common option for almost all book items is the center person: the person on whom the item is centered. Thanks to this option, you can create a book with items centered on different people (e.g. your mom's and dad's ancestors as separate chapters). By default, the center person is set to the Active Person."
msgid "Almost all items available for inclusion in the book are textual or graphical reports, and are therefore available in the form of standalone reports. The exception is the following items which are only available as book items:"
msgid "This item produces a customized Title page. You can configure the text of title, subtitle, and the footer of the page. An image can be optionally placed between the subtitle and the footer. Because of its configurability, this item can be used to create title pages for the whole book, its chapter, or even a single item."
msgid "This item produces a page with three paragraphs, each containing custom text. The appearance of the text can be adjusted by using custom styles. This item was meant to be used for epigraphs, dedications, explanations, notes, and so forth."
msgid "This category contains reports that produce files that are meant to be processed by other programs. By themselves, the files will not provide meaningful information; the files must first be processed by another program. The only code generator currently available in GRAMPS is the Relationship Graph producing the GraphViz description of the graph."
msgid "The Relationship Graph creates a complex relationship graph in GraphViz format. The GraphViz <command>dot</command> tool can transform the graph into postscript, jpeg, png, vrml, svg, and other formats. GraphViz tools are freely available from the <ulink type=\"http\" url=\"http://www.graphviz.org\">GraphViz site</ulink>. Specific options for this report include filter and number of generations considered, as well as several GraphViz-specific options related to pagination, color, and details of the graph."
msgid "If you are not interested in GraphViz code itself and just want to generate graphical output, GRAMPS can do it for you under the hood. Look for <guilabel>Relationship Graph</guilabel> in the Graphical Reports category, <xref linkend=\"rep-graph\"/>"
msgid "Graphical reports represent information in forms of charts and graphs. Most of the options are common among graphical reports, therefore they will be described only once, at the end of this section. The few options which are specific to a given report will be described directly in that report's entry."
msgid "This report generates the chart of people who are ancestors of the Active Person. Specific options include the number of generations considered and the format of the displayed entries."
msgid "This report is similar to the Ancestor Chart report. It provides more options which make it useful for generating huge charts suitable for a poster or a wall chart. These options include the ability to compress the report (getting rid of an empty space) and the option to fit the whole chart on to a single page. In the latter case, the contents of the chart is scaled down appropriately."
msgid "This report generates a graph of people who are descendants of the Active Person. Specific options include the format of the displayed entries."
msgid "This report produces a chart resembling a fan, with Active person in the center, parents the the semicircle next to it, grandparents in the next semicircle, and so on, for a total of five generations."
msgid "This report creates a complex relationship graph in GraphViz format and then converts into graphical output running it through the the GraphViz <command>dot</command> tool behind the scene. Specific options for this report include filter, options for dates and places for the events, and whether to include URLs and IDs for individuals and families. There are also several GraphViz-specific options related to pagination, color, and details of the graph."
msgid "This report can collect and display a wealth of statistical data about your database. Specific options include filter, sorting methods, and additional birth- and gender-based limit for inclusion into statistics. You can also set the minimum number of items to qualify for the bar chart, so that the charts with fewer items will generate a pie chart instead. The <guilabel>Chart Selection</guilabel> tab allows you to check which charts you want to include in your report."
msgid "This report outputs the list of people with their lifetimes represented by intervals on a common chronological scale. Specific options include filter, sorting method, and the title of the report."
msgid "Common options for graphical reports are the filename of the output, the format of the output, selected style, page size and orientation. Optionally, the reports can be immediately opened with the default application."
msgid "Text reports represent the desired information as formatted text. Most of the options are common among text reports, therefore they will be described only once, at the end of this section. The options which are specific to a given report will be described directly in that report's entry."
msgid "This report lists the Active Person and his or her ancestors along with their vital data. The people are numbered in a special way which is an established standard called Ahnentafel. The Active Person is given number 1. His or her father and mother have numbers 2 and 3, respectively. This rule holds for every person while going back in generations: father's parents are numbered 4 and 5, and mother's parents are numbered 6 and 7, fathers always numbered with even and mothers with odd numbers. Therefore, for any person having number N in this tree, the numbers of father and mother are 2N and 2N+1, respectively."
msgid "This report provides individual summaries similar to that of the Individual Summary report. The advantage of this report is the specific filter option. Depending on the filter choice (Active Person only, his or her descendants, his or her ancestors, or entire database), the report may contain from one to many individual summaries. Another option for this report is the inclusion of source information when listing events."
msgid "This report produces a comprehensive description of ancestors of the Active Person. The highlights of this report include elaborate layout, images of children, present and former spouses, and source citations. Specific options: number of backward generations to consider, whether to cite sources, and whether to break pages between generations."
msgid "This report covers in detail the ancestors of the active person. It includes vital data (birth and death) as well as marriages. Specific options: number of backward generations to consider, as well as a variety of options regarding the exact contents to include."
msgid "This report covers in detail the descendants of the active person. It includes vital (birth and death) information as well as marriages. Specific options: number of forward generations to consider."
msgid "This report creates an ancestral report similar to that produced by the Family Tree Maker (tm) program. It covers in detail the Active Person and his/her ancestors It includes vital information as well as marriages, children, and notes. Specific options: number of backward generations to consider."
msgid "This report creates a descendant report similar to that produced by the Family Tree Maker (tm) program. It covers in detail the Active Person and his/her descendants. It includes vital information as well as marriages, children, and notes. Specific options: number of forward generations to consider."
msgid "This creates a family group report, showing information on a set of parents and their children. Specific options: the spouse (available only if the Active Person has more than one spouse)."
msgid "Common options for text reports are the filename of the output, the format of the output, selected style, page size and orientation. For HTML reports, there is no page information. Instead, HTML options include the choice of the HTML template, either available in GRAMPS or a custom template defined by you. Optionally, the reports can be immediately opened with the default application."
msgid "View reports are representing overall summaries of the database information available immediately for on-screen viewing. The following view reports are currently available in GRAMPS:"
msgid "This report displays the overall statistics concerning number of individuals of each gender, various incomplete entries statistics, as well as family and media statistics."
msgid "The only available report in this category is the Narrative Web Site report. It generates a web site (that is, a set of linked web pages), for a set of selected individuals."
msgid "GRAMPS 2.0.6 introduced the Narrative Web generator. The new tool provides considerably more functionality than the older web generator. Instead of using HTML templates to customize the pages, CSS style sheets are used."
msgid "More information is now displayed about each person, along with information about sources, places, and media objects. Introduction pages can be added to provide additional information, such as family history."
msgid "Genealogy records can generate a lot of files. Many web servers have a difficult time with many files in a single directory. The Narrative Web Generator strives to keep the number of files per directory to a managable level. To do this, a hierarchy of directores is created. The generated files names are not intuitive, but are unique per person. Subsequent runs will geneate identical file names, making it easy to replace files."
msgid "By default, the output files are written to the specified directory. Because of the number of files and directories that are created, it may be difficult to transfer the files to an external web host. To aid in this, you may directly create a gzip'd tar file to more easily upload the data. This is the format that should be used if you would like to take advantage of the free genealogy page hosting at the <ulink type=\"http\" url=\"http://family.gramps-project.org\">GRAMPS web hosting site</ulink>."
msgid "Like the previous web page generator, and most of the other GRAMPS reports, you can control what is included in the output by choosing a filter. Several default filters are provided for you, but you are free to use the Custom Filter Editor tool to create your own."
msgid "Any person matching this filter who is not excluded due to the privacy rules, will be included in the output. The default filter includes all people in the database."
msgid "GRAMPS provides six built in style sheets for your web page. Each of these style sheets produces a unique look for your pages. The generated style sheet is named <filename>narrative.css</filename>. You may edit this file if you wish to further customize your site."
msgid "If you make modifications to your style sheet, you need to be aware the regenerating the pages with the same output directory will overwrite your changes to this file. To prevent this from happening, make sure you choose <guilabel>No style sheet</guilabel> for subsequent runs."
msgid "Because of GRAMPS internationalization ability, the default character set for the HTML pages is UTF-8. This provides support for virtually all characters."
msgid "The Apache web server is sometimes misconfigured to override the character set specified in an HTML page. This causes problems with the UTF-8 character set generated by GRAMPS, distorting characters on the screen."
msgid "If your web server is misconfigured and you do not have priveledge to fix the configururation, you may solve this problem by overriding the default character set to match what your web server may be expecting."
msgid "International copyright law reserves all rights to your data. You own the data, and people must get your permission to use it. In genealogy, however, sharing data is a common ideal. It this case, you may wish to grant the user more rights."
msgid "While the default for GRAMPS is to place a notice indicating that all rights are reserved, we give you the option to place your site under one of several of the Create Commons licenses. With a Creative Commons license, you grant user's certain permission to use your data without requiring them to contact you directly for permission."
msgid "Three additional pages can be generated by the web page generator. The Home page is a page that will display an image and a whatever text you wish. To enable this page, choose a Media Object from the <guilabel>Home Media/Note ID</guilabel> menu on the <guilabel>Page Generation</guilabel> tab. If the Media Object contains an image, the image is displayed at the top of the page. If the Media Object contains a Note, the Note's text is used for the text of the page. A second page, the Introduction page, works similarly. Just choose the Media Object in the <guilabel>Introduction Media/Note ID</guilabel> menu."
msgid "If you choose to include a contact page, the researcher information stored in the database is displayed, along with the information specified in the <guilabel>Publisher contact/Note ID</guilabel> menu. Please use this page with caution, since you may consider your contact information to be private."
msgid "Privacy of personal information is an important issue on the web today. GRAMPS tries to give you control over the information that is presented."
msgid "GRAMPS provides two options to control the privacy of your information. If you select the <guilabel>Do not include records marked private</guilabel> option, any data that is marked as private will not be displayed on the generated site. If you select <guilabel>Restrict information on living people</guilabel>, GRAMPS will attempt to determine which people have the potential of still being alive, and will omit these people from the database. Some countries have laws that indicate that a certain number of years must pass after someone's death before information can be published. The <guilabel>Years to restrict from person's death</guilabel> option allows you to specifiy how many years a person must be deceased before the information is included."
msgid "Please note that it is your responsibility to double check all information in the pages for any privacy information. GRAMPS cannot be held responsible for any privacy issues."
msgid "The previous web generator allowed you to customize your pages using HTML templates. Your data would be substituted for certain markers in the code."
msgid "This method proved to be too cumbersome for most users. The Narrative Web Page Generator introduces a simpler mechanism. On the <guilabel>Page Generation</guilabel> tab, you may specify text (including HTML code) that will be inserted into each page, separately for the header and the footer."
msgid "To create this code, you need to create a Media Object marked as an internal note. To create this, add a new Media Object in the Media View, and select the internal note option. You may then enter your HTML code."
msgid "To insert the code from the internal notes into the web pages, select the appropriate Media Objects from the <guilabel>HTML user header</guilabel> and <guilabel>HTML user footer</guilabel> menus. Two div sections will be added to the pages - userheader and userfooter. The corresponding HTML code is inserted into the HTML page surrounded by div markers. You can customize your style sheet to provide additional formatting and positioning information to control these sections."
msgid "GRAMPS tools allow you to perform various types of analysis of your genealogical data. Typically, the tools do not produce output in form of printouts or files. Instead, they produce screen output immediately available for the researcher. However, when appropriate, you can save the results of running a tool into a file. Tools present one of the major strengths of GRAMPS compared to the most genealogical software."
msgid "The tools can be accessed through the menu by choosing <menuchoice><guimenu>Tools</guimenu><guisubmenu><replaceable>Tool Section</replaceable></guisubmenu><guimenuitem><replaceable>Particular Tool</replaceable></guimenuitem></menuchoice>. Alternatively, you can browse the complete selection of available tools along with their brief descriptions in a <guilabel>Tool Selection</guilabel> dialog invoked by clicking the <guibutton>Tools</guibutton> icon on the toolbar."
msgid "This section contains tools which analyze and explore the database, but do not alter it. The following analysis and exploration tools are currently available in GRAMPS:"
msgid "This tool compares events across the selected group of people. The people for this comparison are chosen with the use of custom filters. The custom filters can be created in the Custom Filter Editor (see <xref linkend=\"tools-util-cfe\"/>) that can be invoked by clicking the <guilabel>Custom Filter Editor</guilabel> button. The resulting table produced by this tool can be saved as a spreadsheet."
msgid "This tool builds a tree with the Active Person being the root. Children branch from their parents in the usual manner. Use this tool for a quick glance of a person's descendants."
msgid "This section contains tools which may modify your database. The tools from this section are used mostly for finding and correcting errors in the data. The following database processing tools are currently available in GRAMPS:"
msgid "The modifications will only be performed upon your explicit consent, except for the automatic fixes performed by <guilabel>Check and repair database</guilabel> tool."
msgid "Broken family links. These are the cases when a person's record refers to a family while the family's record does not refer to that person, and vice versa."
msgid "Missing media objects. The missing media object is the object whose file is referenced in the database but does not exist. This can happen when the file is accidentally deleted, renamed, or moved to another location."
msgid "Parent relationship. This checks all families to ensure that father and mother are not mixed up. The check is also made that parents have different gender. If they have common gender then their relationship is renamed to \"Partners\"."
msgid "This tool searches the entire database and attempts to extract titles and nicknames that may be embedded in a person's <guilabel>Given name</guilabel> field. If any information could be extracted, the candidates for fixing will be presented in the table. You may then decide which to repair as suggested and which not to."
msgid "This tool searches the entire database and attempts to fix the capitalization of family names. The aim is to have conventional capitalization: capital first letter and lower case for the rest of the family name. If deviations from this rule are detected, the candidates for fixing will be presented in the table. You may then decide which to repair as suggested and which not to."
msgid "This section contains tools allowing you to perform a simple operation on a portion of data. The results can be saved in your database, but they will not modify your existing data. The following utilities are currently available in GRAMPS:"
msgid "The Custom Filter Editor builds custom filters that can be used to select people included in reports, exports, and other tools and utilities. This is in fact a very powerful tool in genealogical analysis."
msgid "When you launch it, the <guilabel>User defined filters</guilabel> dialog appears that lists all the filters (if any) previously defined by you. Click the <guibutton>Add...</guibutton> button to define a new filter. Once you have designed your filters, you can edit, test, and delete selected filters using the <guibutton>Edit...</guibutton>, <guibutton>Test...</guibutton>, and <guibutton>Delete</guibutton> buttons, respectively. All the filters displayed in the list will be automatically saved along with your database and will be available with subsequent sessions of GRAMPS."
msgid "Type the name for your new filter into the <guilabel>Name</guilabel> field. Enter any comment that would help you identify this filter in the future into the <guilabel>Comment</guilabel> field. Add as many rules to the <guilabel>Rule list</guilabel> as you would like to your filter using <guibutton>Add...</guibutton> button. If the filter has more than one rule, select one of the <guilabel>Rule operations</guilabel>. This allows you to choose whether all rules must apply, only one (either) rule must apply, or exactly one (either) rule must apply, in order for the filter to generate a match. If your filter has only one rule, this selection has no effect."
msgid "Check <guilabel>Return values that do not match the filter rules</guilabel> to invert the filter rule. For example, inverting \"has a common ancestor with I1\" rule will match everyone who does not have a common ancestor with that person)."
msgid "The pane on the left-hand side displays available filter rules arranged by their categories in an expandable tree. For detailed filter rule reference, see <xref linkend=\"append-filtref\"/>. Click on the arrows to fold/unfold the appropriate category. Select the rule from the tree by clicking on its name. The right-hand side displays the name, the description, and the values for the currently selected rule. Once you are satisfied with your rule selection and its values, click <guibutton>OK</guibutton> to add this rule to the rule list of the currently edited filter. Clicking <guibutton>Cancel</guibutton> will abort adding the rule to the filter."
msgid "A filter you have already designed may be used as a rule for another filter. This gives you nearly infinite flexibility in custom-tailoring your selection criteria that can be later used in most of the exports, reports, and some of the tools (such as comparing individual events)."
msgid "This tool provides a temporary note pad to store database records for easy reuse. In short, this is a sort of the copy-and-paste functionality extended from textual objects to other types of records used in GRAMPS."
msgid "To invoke Scratch Pad, either choose <menuchoice><guimenu>Tools</guimenu><guisubmenu>Utilities</guisubmenu><guimenuitem>Scratch Pad</guimenuitem></menuchoice> or click the <guilabel>ScratchPad</guilabel> button on the toolbar. The following window will appear:"
msgid "Scratch Pad supports addresses, attributes (both personal and family), events (both personal and family), names, media objects references, source references, URLs, and of course textual information of notes and comments. To store any type of these records, simply drag the existing record on to the Scratch Pad from the corresponding editor dialog. To reuse the record, drag it from the Scratch Pad on to the corresponding place in the editor, e.g. Address tab, Attribute tab, etc."
msgid "Some objects are showing the link icon on the left. This indicates that dragging such selection will produce a reference to an existing object, not copy the object itself."
msgid "For example, the media object file will not be duplicated. Instead, the reference will be made to an existing media object, which will result in the local gallery entry."
msgid "Scratch Pad storage is persistent within a single GRAMPS session. Closing the window will not lose the stored records. However, exiting GRAMPS will."
msgid "This utility generates SoundEx codes for the names of people in the database. Please visit the <ulink type=\"http\" url=\"http://www.archives.gov/research_room/genealogy/census/soundex.html\">NARA Soundex Indexing page</ulink> to learn more about Soundex Indexing System."
msgid "The Check tool detects inconsistencies in the database structure. The Verify tool, however, is detecting the records that do not satisfy your particular criteria."
msgid "For example, you may want to make sure that nobody in your database had children at the age of 98. Based on common sense, such a record would indicate an error. However, it is not a consistency error in the database. Besides, someone might have a child at the age of 98 (although this rarely happens). The Verify tool will display everything that violates your criteria so that you can check whether the record is erroneous or not. The ultimate decision is yours."
msgid "Most of the settings in GRAMPS, are configured in the <guilabel>Preferences</guilabel> dialog. To invoke it, choose <menuchoice><guimenu>Edit</guimenu><guimenuitem>Preferences...</guimenuitem></menuchoice>."
msgid "This option controls the enabling and disabling of the spelling checker for notes. The gtkspell package must be loaded for this to have an effect."
msgid "This option controls the enabling and disabling of shading in the Relationship View. If enabled, information will be grouped together in regions with a shaded background."
msgid "Care must be taken with selecting this option. By default, transactions are enabled. This improves database performance and protects database integrity. However, if your system is using a version of the Python language prior to version 2.5, your database will not be portable to other machines, and if you want to transfer your data to another machine, you will need to export using the GRAMPS XML format. Disabling this option will allow databases to be portable, but at a risk of database integrity problems."
msgid "This option only affects the initial family name guessed by GRAMPS when the <guilabel>Edit Person</guilabel> dialog is launched. You can modify that name the way you see fit. Set this option to the value that you will most frequently use, as it will save you a lot of typing."
msgid "If <guilabel>None</guilabel> is selected, no guessing will be attempted. Selecting <guilabel>Father's surname</guilabel> will use the family name of the father. Selecting <guilabel>Combination of mother's and father's surname</guilabel> will use the father's name followed by the mother's name. Finally, <guilabel>Icelandic style</guilabel> will use the father's given name followed by the \"sson\" suffix (e.g. the son of Edwin will be guessed as Edwinsson)."
msgid "This option controls the information displayed in the status bar. This can be either the Active Person's name and GRAMPS ID or Active Person's relationship to the Home person."
msgid "This option controls whether or not a text description is displayed next to the icon in the sidebar. This option takes effect after the program has been restarted."
msgid "The ID prefixes use formatting conventions common for C, Python, and other programming languages. For example, the %04d expands to an integer, prepended with zeros to have the total width of four digits. If you would like IDs to be 1, 2, 3, etc, simply set the formatting parameter to %d."
msgid "Enter your personal information in the corresponding text entry fields. Although GRAMPS requests information about you, this information is used only so that GRAMPS can create valid GEDCOM output files. A valid GEDCOM file requires information about the file's creator. If you choose, you may leave the information empty, however none of your exported GEDCOM files will be valid."
msgid "Besides <guilabel>Preferences</guilabel> dialog, there are other settings available in GRAMPS. For various reasons they have been made more readily accessible, as listed below."
msgid "The columns of the list views may be added, removed, or reordered in a <guilabel>Column Editor Dialog</guilabel>, see <xref linkend=\"column-editor-fig\"/>. Only checked columns will be shown in the view. To change their order, drag any column to its desired place inside the editor. Clicking <guibutton>OK</guibutton> will reflect the changes in the appropriate view. To invoke <guilabel>Column Editor Dialog</guilabel>, choose <menuchoice><guimenu>Edit</guimenu><guimenuitem>Column Editor...</guimenuitem></menuchoice>."
msgid "The <guilabel>Column Editor</guilabel> is available and works in the same way for all list views. Specifically, it is available for People View, Family View (children list). Sources View, Places View, and Media View."
msgid "The Home person is the person who becomes active when database opened, when <guibutton>Home</guibutton> button is clicked or the <guimenuitem>Home</guimenuitem> menu item is selected from either <guimenu>Go</guimenu> menu or the right-click context menu anywhere."
msgid "To set Home person, make the desired person active and then choose <menuchoice><guimenu>Edit</guimenu><guimenuitem>Set Home person...</guimenuitem></menuchoice>."
msgid "Whether the toolbar, the sidebar, or the filter (People View only) are displayed in the main window is adjusted through the <guimenu>View</guimenu> menu."
msgid "The contents of this section is outside the scope of interest of a general user of GRAMPS. If you proceed with tweaking the options on the low level you may damage your GRAMPS installation. Be careful. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!"
msgid "By default, GRAMPS stores its settings using gconf2 system. All the settings used in this version of GRAMPS are stored in subdirectories under <filename>/apps/gramps/</filename> in the gconf2 namespace. Accessing the keys can be done either using <command>gconftool-2</command> command line tool, or the <command>gconf-editor</command> GUI tool."
msgid "All keys are documented, and the notification mechanisms are used as appropriate. Therefore, updating keys from outside of GRAMPS should lead to updating GRAMPS in real time, without necessarily restarting it."
msgid "This appendix contains the list of questions that frequently come up in mailing list discussions and forums. This list is by no means complete. If you would like to add questions/answers to this list, please email your suggestions to <ulink type=\"mailto\" url=\"mailto:gramps-devel@lists.sf.net\">gramps-devel@lists.sf.net</ulink>"
msgid "GRAMPS is the Genealogical Research and Analysis Management Program System. In other words, it is a personal genealogy program letting you store, edit, and research genealogical data using the powers of your computer."
msgid "GRAMPS can be downloaded from <ulink type=\"http\" url=\"http://sf.net/projects/gramps\">http://sf.net/projects/gramps</ulink> at no charge. GRAMPS is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General Public License. You have full access to the source code and are allowed to distribute the program and source code freely."
msgid "No. GRAMPS uses the GTK and GNOME libraries. While the GTK libraries have been ported to Windows, the GNOME libraries have not. This, however, may change in the future."
msgid "<ulink type=\"http\" url=\"http://fink.sourceforge.net\"> The Fink project</ulink> has ported <ulink type=\"http\" url=\"http://fink.sourceforge.net/pdb/package.php/gramps\"> some older versions</ulink> of GRAMPS to OSX (tm). The Mac OSX port is not directly supported by the GRAMPS project, primarily because none of the GRAMPS developers have access to Mac OSX and because OSX is not Free Software."
msgid "GRAMPS makes every effort to maintain compatibility with GEDCOM, the general standard of recording genealogical information. We have import and export filters that enable GRAMPS to read and write GEDCOM files."
msgid "It is important to understand that the GEDCOM standard is poorly implemented -- virtually every genealogical software has its own \"flavor\" of GEDCOM. As we learn about new flavor, the import/export filters can be created very quickly. However, finding out about the unknown flavors requires user feedback. Please feel free to inform us about any GEDCOM flavor not supported by GRAMPS, and we will do our best to support it!"
msgid "Yes. Different people have different ideas of what a genealogical tree is. Some think of it as a chart going from the distant ancestor and listing all his/her descendants and their families. Others think it should be a chart going from the person back in time, listing the ancestors and their families. Yet other people think of a table, text report, etc."
msgid "GRAMPS can produce any of the above, and many more different charts and reports. Moreover, the plugin architecture enables users (you) to create their own plugins which could be new reports, charts, or research tools."
msgid "Text reports are available in HTML, PDF, AbiWord, KWord, LaTeX, RTF, and OpenOffice formats. Graphical reports (charts and diagrams) are available in PostScript, PDF, SVG, OpenOffice, and GraphViz formats."
msgid "GRAMPS can store web addresses and direct your browser to them. It can import data that you download from the Internet. It can export data that you could send over the Internet. GRAMPS is familiar with the standard file formats widely used on the Internet (e.g. JPEG, PNG, and GIF images, MP3, OGG, and WAV sound files, QuickTime, MPEG, and AVI movie files, etc). Other than that, there is little that a genealogical program can do with the Internet."
msgid "Yes. There are many levels of customization. One is creating or modifying the templates used for the reports. This gives you some control over the fonts, colors, and some layout of the reports. You can also use GRAMPS controls in the report dialogs to tell what contents should be used for a particular report. In addition to this, you have an ability to create your own filters -- this is useful in selecting people based on criteria set by you. You can combine these filters to create new, more complex filters. Finally, you have an option to create your own plugins. These may be new reports, research tools, import/export filters, etc. This assumes some knowledge of programming in Python."
msgid "The nice thing about standards is that there never is a shortage of them. GRAMPS is tested to support the following flavors of GEDCOM: GEDCOM5.5, Brother's Keeper, Family Origins, Family Tree Maker, Ftree, GeneWeb, Legacy, Personal Ancestral File, Pro-Gen, Reunion, and Visual Genealogie."
msgid "GRAMPS has no hard limits on the size of a database that it can handle. Starting with this release, GRAMPS no longer loads all data into memory, which allows it to work with a much larger database than before. In reality, however, there are practical limits. The main limiting factors are the available memory on the system and the cache size used for BSDDB database access. With common memory sizes these days, GRAMPS should have no problem using databases with tens of thousands of people."
msgid "We have found that on a typical system, GRAMPS tends to bog down after the database has around 150,000 people. Again, this is dependent on how much memory you have."
msgid "GRAMPS keeps a flag in the GNOME configuration database to indicate that the startup dialog has been run. To cause GRAMPS to rerun this, the flag needs to be reset. This can be done with the following command:"
msgid "This is a limitation of the builtin fonts of PS and PDF formats. To print non-latin text, use the Print... in the format selection menu of the report dialog. This will use the gnome-print backend, which supports PS and PDF creation, as well as direct printing."
msgid "If you only have latin text, the PDF option will produce a smalled PDF compared to that created by gnome-print, simply because no font information will be embedded."
msgid "The easiest way to contribute to reports, filters, tools, etc. is to copy an existing GRAMPS report, filter, or tool. If you can create what you want by modifying existing code -- great! If your idea does not fit into the logic of any existing GRAMPS tool, the <ulink type=\"http\" url=\"http://gramps.sourceforge.net/phpwiki/index.php/GrampsDevelopersPage\">following page</ulink> may provide some help in writing your own plugin from scratch."
msgid "If you need more help or would like to discuss your idea with us, please do not hesitate to contact us at <ulink type=\"mailto\" url=\"mailto:gramps-devel@lists.sf.net\">gramps-devel@lists.sf.net</ulink>"
msgid "To test your work in progress, you may save your plugin under <replaceable>$HOME/.gramps/plugins</replaceable> directory and it should be found and imported on startup. The correctly written plugin will register itself with GRAMPS, create menu item, and so on."
msgid "If you are happy with your plugin and would like to contribute your code back to the GRAMPS project, you are very welcome to do so by contacting us at <ulink type=\"mailto\" url=\"mailto:gramps-devel@lists.sf.net\">gramps-devel@lists.sf.net</ulink>"
msgid "The best thing you can do is to fix the bug and send the patch to <ulink type=\"mailto\" url=\"mailto:gramps-devel@lists.sf.net\">gramps-devel@lists.sf.net</ulink> :-)"
msgid "Version of gramps you were using when you encountered the bug (available through <menuchoice><guisubmenu>Help</guisubmenu><guimenuitem>About</guimenuitem></menuchoice> menu item)."
msgid "Most problems can be fixed quickly provided there is enough information. To ensure this, please follow up on your bug reports. In particular, if you file a bug report with sf.net bug tracker, PLEASE log in to sf.net before filing (register your free account if you don't have one). Then we will have a way of contacting you should we need more information. If you choose to file your report anonymously, at least check every so often whether your report page has something new posted, as it probably would."
msgid "It is obvious that GRAMPS absolutely needs to become a (client-server/web-based/PHP/weblog/Javascript/C++/distributed/KDE/Motif/Tcl/Win32/C#/You-name-it) application. When is this going to happen?"
msgid "The surest way to see it happen is to get it done by yourself. Since GRAMPS is free/open source, nobody prevents you from taking all of the code and continuing its development in whatever direction you see fit. In doing so, you may consider giving your new project another name to avoid confusion with the continuing GRAMPS development. If you would like the GRAMPS project to provide advice, expertise, filters, etc., we will gladly cooperate with your new project, to ensure compatibility or import/export options to your new format of a project."
msgid "If, however, you would like the GRAMPS project to to adopt your strategy, you would need to convince GRAMPS developers that your strategy is good for GRAMPS and superior to the present development strategy."
msgid "Most of the standard menu items define equivalent keybindings. These are apparent because they are displayed on the right of the menu item. However, some keybindings are not associated with any items in the menu."
msgid "Swap the Active Person and the selected spouse. Use <keycap>Ctrl</keycap>+<keycap>Down</keycap> in standard Family View and <keycap>Ctrl</keycap>+<keycap>Right</keycap> in alternative Family View."
msgid "Swap the selected spouse and the Active Person. Use <keycap>Ctrl</keycap>+<keycap>Up</keycap> in standard Family View and <keycap>Ctrl</keycap>+<keycap>Left</keycap> in alternative Family View."
msgid "Edit relationship between the parents and their child (either the Active Person or the selected spouse, depending which parents box the focus is in)."
msgid "Make the selected parents the active family. Use <keycap>Ctrl</keycap>+<keycap>Right</keycap> in standard Family View and <keycap>Ctrl</keycap>+<keycap>Down</keycap> in alternative Family View."
msgid "Make the selected child the Active Person. Use <keycap>Ctrl</keycap>+<keycap>Left</keycap> in standard Family View and <keycap>Ctrl</keycap>+<keycap>Up</keycap> in alternative Family View."
msgid "This appendix lists of all the filter rules currently defined in GRAMPS. Each of these rules is available for use when creating custom filters, see <xref linkend=\"tools-util-cfe\"/>. The rules are listed by their categories."
msgid "This rule matches all people whose records are marked as complete. Currently, the completeness of personal information is marked manually, in the <guilabel>Edit Person</guilabel> dialog."
msgid "This rule matches all people whose records contain specified substring. All textual records are searched. Optionally, the search can be made case sensitive, or a regular expression match."
msgid "This rule matches any person in the database. As such it is not very useful on its own except for testing purposes. However, it may be useful in combinations with other rules."
msgid "This rule matches all people whose records do not indicate their death and who are not unreasonably old, judging by their available birth data and today's date."
msgid "This rule matches any person whose name matches the specified value in full or in part. For example, Marta Ericsdotter will be matched by the rule using the value \"eric\" for the family name."
msgid "Separate values can be used for Given name, Family name, Suffix, and the Title. The rule returns a match if, and only if, all non-empty values are (partially) matched by a person's name. To use just one value, leave the other values empty."
msgid "You can either enter the ID into a text entry field, or select a person from the list by clicking <guibutton>Select...</guibutton> button. In the latter case, the ID will appear in the text field after the selection was made."
msgid "This rule matches people whose birth event matches specified values for Date, Place, and Description. The rule returns a match even if the person's birth event matches the value partially. The matching rules are case-insensitive. For example, anyone born in Sweden will be matched by the rule using the value \"sw\" for the Place."
msgid "The rule returns a match if, and only if, all non-empty values are (partially) matched by a person's birth. To use just one value, leave the other values empty."
msgid "This rule matches people whose death event matches specified values for Date, Place, and Description. The rule returns a match even if the person's death event matches the value partially. The matching rules are case-insensitive. For example, anyone who died in Sweden will be matched by the rule using the value \"sw\" for the Place."
msgid "The rule returns a match if, and only if, all non-empty values are (partially) matched by a person's death. To use just one value, leave the other values empty."
msgid "This rule matches people that have a personal event matching specified values for the Event type, Date, Place, and Description. The rule returns a match even if the person's event matches the value partially. The matching rules are case-insensitive. For example, anyone who graduated in Sweden will be matched by the rule using the Graduation event and the value \"sw\" for the Place."
msgid "The personal events should be selected from a pull-down menu. The rule returns a match if, and only if, all non-empty values are (partially) matched by the personal event. To use just one value, leave the other values empty."
msgid "This rule matches people that have a family event matching specified values for the Event type, Date, Place, and Description. The rule returns a match even if the person's event matches the value partially. The matching rules are case-insensitive. For example, anyone who was married in Sweden will be matched by the rule using the Marriage event and the value \"sw\" for the Place."
msgid "The family events should be selected from a pull-down menu. The rule returns a match if, and only if, all non-empty values are (partially) matched by the personal event. To use just one value, leave the other values empty."
msgid "This rule matches people who are present as a witness in the event. If the personal or family event type is specified, only the events of this type will be searched."
msgid "This rule matches people with a particular relationship. The relationship must match the type selected from the menu. Optionally, the number of relationships and the number of children can be specified."
msgid "The rule returns a match if, and only if, all non-empty values are (partially) matched by a person's relationship. To use just one value, leave the other values empty."
msgid "This rule matches people married to someone who is matched by the specified filter. The specified filter name should be selected from the menu."
msgid "This rule matches people for whom either parent is matched by the specified filter. The specified filter name should be selected from the menu."
msgid "This rule matches people who are ancestors of the specified person. The Inclusive option determines whether the specified person should be considered his/her own ancestor (useful for building reports)."
msgid "This rule matches people who are ancestors of the specified person and are at least N generations away from that person in their lineage. For example, using this rule with the value of 2 for the number of generations will match grandparents, great-grandparents, etc., but not the parents of the specified person."
msgid "This rule matches people who are ancestors of the specified person and are no more than N generations away from that person in their lineage. For example, using this rule with the value of 2 for the number of generations will match parents and grandparents, but not great-grandparents, etc., of the specified person."
msgid "This rule matches people who have common ancestors with someone who is matched by the specified filter. The specified filter name should be selected from the menu."
msgid "This rule matches people who are ancestors of someone who is matched by the specified filter. The specified filter name should be selected from the menu."
msgid "This rule matches people who are descendants of the specified person. The Inclusive option determines whether the specified person should be considered his/her own descendant (useful for building reports)."
msgid "This rule matches people who are descendants of the specified person and are at least N generations away from that person in their lineage.

msgid "This rule matches people who are descendants of the specified person and are no more than N generations away from that person in their lineage. For example, using this rule with the value of 2 for the number of generations will match children and grandchildren, but not great-grandchildren, etc., of the specified person."
msgid "This rule matches people who are descendants of someone who is matched by the specified filter. The specified filter name should be selected from the menu."
msgid "This rule matches all ancestors of both people back to their common ancestors (if exist). This produces the \"relationship path\" between these two people, through their common ancestors."
msgid "You can either enter the ID of each person into the appropriate text entry fields, or select people from the list by clicking their <guibutton>Select...</guibutton> buttons. In the latter case, the ID will appear in the text field after the selection was made."
msgid "This rule matches people who have the personal attribute of the specified value. The specified personal attribute name should be selected from the menu. The specified value should be typed into the text entry field."
msgid "This rule matches people who have the family attribute of the specified value. The specified family attribute should be selected from the menu. The specified value should be typed into the text entry field."
msgid "GRAMPS was designed to be an interactive program. Therefore it uses graphical display and cannot run from the true non-graphical console. It would take an enormous amount of effort to enable it to run in a text-only terminal. This is why the set of command line options does not aim to completely get rid of dependency on the graphical display. Rather, it merely makes certain (typical) tasks more convenient. It also allows one to execute these tasks from the scripts. However, the graphical display must be accessible at all times!"
msgid "To summarize, the use of the command line options provides non-interactive behavior, but does not get rid of graphical display dependency. Take it or leave it!"
msgid "This section provides the reference list of all command line options available in GRAMPS. If you want to know more than just a list of options, see next sections: <xref linkend=\"cmdline-operation\"/> and <xref linkend=\"cmdline-examples\"/>."
msgid "The format of any file destined for opening, importing, or exporting can be specified with the <command>-f <replaceable>format</replaceable></command> option. The acceptable <replaceable>format</replaceable> values are listed below."
msgid "GRAMPS database. This format is available for opening, import, and export. When not specified, it can be guessed if the filename ends with .grdb"
msgid "GRAMPS XML database. This format is available for opening, import, and export. When not specified, it can be guessed if the filename ends with .gramps"
msgid "If the filename is given without any option flag, the attempt to open the file will be made, and then the interactive GRAMPS session will be launched."
msgid "If no option is given, just the file name, GRAMPS will ignore the rest of the command line arguments. Use the -O flag to open the file and do something with the data."
msgid "The format can be specified with the <command>-f <replaceable>format</replaceable></command> or <command>--format=<replaceable>format</replaceable></command> option, immediately following the <filename>filename</filename>. If not specified, the guess will be attempted based on the <filename>filename</filename>."
msgid "Only grdb, gramps-xml, and gedcom formats can be opened directly. For other formats, you will need to use the import option which will set up the empty database and then import data into it."
msgid "The files destined for import can be specified with the <command>-i <filename>filename</filename></command> or <command>--import=<filename>filename</filename></command> option. The format can be specified with the <command>-f <replaceable>format</replaceable></command> or <command>--format=<replaceable>format</replaceable></command> option, immediately following the <filename>filename</filename>. If not specified, the guess will be attempted based on the <filename>filename</filename>."
msgid "More than one file can be imported in one command. If this is the case, GRAMPS will incorporate the data from the next file into the database available at the moment."
msgid "When more than one input file is given, each has to be preceded by <command>-i</command> flag. The files are imported in the specified order, i.e. <command> -i <filename>file1</filename> -i <filename>file2</filename></command> and <command> -i <filename>file2</filename> -i <filename>file1</filename></command> might produce different GRAMPS IDs in the resulting database."
msgid "The files destined for export can be specified with the <command>-o <filename>filename</filename></command> or <command>--output=<filename>filename</filename></command> option. The format can be specified with the <command>-f</command> option immediately following the <filename>filename</filename>. If not specified, the guess will be attempted based on the <filename>filename</filename>. For iso format, the <filename>filename</filename> is actually the name of directory the GRAMPS database will be written into. For grdb, gramps-xml, gedcom, wft, geneweb, and gramps-pkg, the <filename>filename</filename> is the name of the resulting file."
msgid "More than one file can be exported in one command. If this is the case, GRAMPS will attempt to write several files using the data from the database available at the moment."
msgid "When more than one output file is given, each has to be preceded by <command>-o</command> flag. The files are written one by one, in the specified order."
msgid "The action to perform on the imported data can be specified with the <command>-a <replaceable>action</replaceable></command> or <command>--action=<replaceable>action</replaceable></command> option. This is done after all imports are successfully completed."
msgid "This action is the same as <menuchoice><guimenu>Tools</guimenu><guisubmenu>Database Processing</guisubmenu><guimenuitem>Check and Repair</guimenuitem></menuchoice>."
msgid "This action allows producing reports from the command line. As reports generally have many options of their own, this action should be followed by the report option string. The string is given using the <command>-p <replaceable>option_string</replaceable></command> or <command>--options=<replaceable>option_string</replaceable></command> option."
msgid "This mandatory option determines which report will be generated. If the supplied report_name does not correspond to any available report, the error message will be printed followed by the list of available reports."
msgid "This will print the description of the functionality supplied by the option_name, as well as what are the acceptable types and values for this option."
msgid "If an option is not supplied, the last used value will be used. If this report has never been generated before, then the value from last generated report will be used when applicable. Otherwise, the default value will be used."
msgid "When more than one output action is given, each has to be preceded by <command>-a</command> flag. The actions are performed one by one, in the specified order."
msgid "If the first argument on the command line does not start with dash (i.e. no flag), GRAMPS will attempt to open the file with the name given by the first argument and start interactive session, ignoring the rest of the command line arguments."
msgid "If the <command>-O</command> flag is given, then GRAMPS will try opening the supplied file name and then work with that data, as instructed by the further command line parameters."
msgid "Only one file can be opened in a single invocation of GRAMPS. If you need to get data from multiple sources, use the importing options by using <command>-i</command> flag."
msgid "With or without the <command>-O</command> flag, there could be multiple imports, exports, and actions specified further on the command line by using <command>-i</command>, <command>-o</command>, and <command>-a</command> flags."
msgid "The order of <command>-i</command>, <command>-o</command>, or <command>-a</command> options with respect to each does not matter. The actual execution order always is: all imports (if any) -> all exports (if any) -> all actions (if any)."
msgid "If no <command>-O</command> or <command>-i</command> option is given, GRAMPS will launch its main window and start the usual interactive session with the empty database, since there is no data to process, anyway."
msgid "If no <command>-o</command> or <command>-a</command> options are given, GRAMPS will launch its main window and start the usual interactive session with the database resulted from opening and all imports (if any). This database resides in the <filename>import_db.grdb</filename> file under the <filename>~/.gramps/import/</filename> directory."
msgid "Any errors encountered during import, export, or action, will be either dumped to stdout (if these are exceptions handled by GRAMPS) or or to stderr (if these are not handled). Use usual shell redirections of stdout and stderr to save messages and errors in files."
msgid "To record the database resulting from all imports, supply <command>-o</command> flag (use <command>-f</command> if the filename does not allow GRAMPS to guess the format):"
msgid "To open a database and, based on that data, generate timeline report in PDF format putting the output into the <filename>my_timeline.pdf</filename> file:"
msgid "Use the <replaceable>name=timeline,show=all</replaceable> to find out about all available options for the timeline report. To find out details of a particular option, use <replaceable>show=option_name</replaceable>, e.g. <replaceable>name=timeline,show=off</replaceable> string."
