Hi everyone! I made a translator bot that translates statuses it's mentioned in.

To use it, mention @translator ([email protected]) in your status, followed by the two-letter code for the language you want to translate to (e.g. "ja" for Japanese) (full list of possible codes here: https://christopher.su/projects/translator/). It uses English if no language is given.

Give it a try and toot me your suggestions and comments!

@translator ja

@cs [ja] @xdej @translator それらが掲載され、非上場。
@cs this is now the only translation of one of your toots in that thread, according to Tusky on my phone.
@xdej I think that should be the only translation in the thread, at it is the only translation requested in the thread. If you mention @translator without specifying a language code after the mention, and your toot is already in English, it will not respond. If you do give a language, it will reply with the translation in that language: @translator zh-CHS
@translator jp @cs does it have an option to add furiganas over the kanjis?
@xdej @translator Don't think so :/ I might be able to add it it in after the translation, if there's a decent library for it.
