LazSWatch - a serial port watcher

[CM630]

LazSWatch is Multiplatform FOSS Serial port watcher.
It stays in the system tray (notifcation area), notifies you for changes in the serial (COM) ports, connected to your computer and provides some additional info. Useful for those, who often use (many) serial ports.

I made it for myself, but I decided I could waste some time sharing it.
It is actually a must have tool for (those like) me, working with (multiple) serial devices.

It is for Windows and Linux, maybe it could work on MacOS, if it happens to have a systray.

May be an internationa language should be appreciated, instead of russian (I think) ...

It is a localisable app, the .POs and the .POT are inside...
or maybe something with the windows installe is wrong (I am guessing, as I am not sure what you mean).

EDIT: The Windows setup is bilingual, I just checked.

@LeP
Yes, but Russian IS an international language, I am afraid: my wife from Lithuania is fluent and I am proficient. Just like many others that have a history with the former soviet union, its former states and affiliate states, not different from English. It is not common to this forum (although it is... a bit) but should not distract from good code.
There are more Russian speakers outside of Russia than in Russia.

But I can see your discomfort and mostly the forum is managed as such: there is a Russian subforum.

But Russian in the code comments should never be a problem.

...Yes, but Russian IS an international language...

It is, but the app does not support it.
Still, when the setup is started, on the first screen it asks "Install for yourslef only/ Intall for everyone", and the laguage selection screen comes after that (the second one)... pretty odd, at least I see no logic in this order.

I don't speak about the forum, we can speak in Mandarin and Hindi too ... more people speak those than russian.

I speak about installer ... but never mind, I have lived without it and I will live without it again.

Thanks anyway for your availability.

It is, but the app does not support it.

That is strange then, because you wrote it and I expect it to be UTF8?
Anyway something to do tomorrow...

It does not support Russian, because no one translated it, not that it cannot be supported.
The Black Sea is for younger party people and it is overcrowded.
The White Sea in Greece is warmer and desolate. Restaurants and snacks are extremely expensive there, but some say Bulgaria has become very expensive resently.

I will check what is wrong. If you press any of the buttons you will get to the language selection menu, there is English there.

...I speak about installer ...

Updated a fixed windows installer, seems to be due to a bug in InnoSetup, but there is an override.
Thanks for the feedback!

EDIT: Cannot install without admin privileges in Windows.
EDIT2: Should be fixed now.
