Mouse selection and function icon

[Didier3L]

Hello,

There is a plugin for firefox that allows to translate text or page
it is S3.Translator

When you select text in a web page, icons are displayed to perform various functions

Can an AHK program exist to do the same thing in Outlook, Word, Excel, etc.

Sélection à la souris et Icone de fonction

Bonjour,

Il existe un plugin pour firefox qui permet de faire la traduction de texte ou de page
il s'agit de S3.Traducteur

Quand on sélectionne du texte dans une page web, des icones s'affichent pour executer diverses fonctions

Est-ce qu'un programme AHK existe pour faire la même chose dans Outlook, Word, Excel, etc ?

Going from this original post https://www.autohotkey.com/boards/viewtopic.php?f=76&t=58414&p=281889&hilit=deepl#p281889 you could do something similar. (NOTE: they have since changed their api and the script in that no longer works.)

Basically all you would need do is get an api key. Use ahk to call that api with the text you want to translate. Then you will get an output from the api that should hopefully be close to what you are looking for. Also as a warning it may not always be 100% translation since its hard to get it to be 100% effective. Taking your post as the English portion to French I got the following:

But it still did pretty well.

EDIT: I just noticed this is a paid service now, but its still an option? Also I believe you can do this with googles translator services as well (not sure if its paid or not).

My script works without api key.
