Oh! Text Hooker ver 0.4 ( 2004/02/10 )
Japanese-English translation plugin is added. jetrans.dll plugin supports Japanese-English translation. However, it translates Japanese into English by using web translation, which means that jetrans.dll may not work if it causes heavy server/network overload some time later. If you want to see the screenshot of Japanese-English translation, click here.
Now, you can play Japanese games even if you don't know Japanese. ( WOW )
The jetrans.dll source code is available in the doc/plugins/jetrans directory.
Except for jetrans.dll, everything is same with the last version.
Oh! Text Hooker ver 0.3p9 ( 2004/01/29 )
The flooding hooked text could cause a crash or make the application very slow. It was not a Oh! Text Hooker bug but a ezTrans XP bug. ezTrans XP sometimes hangs or crashes when the translating text has over 120 characters. If you can't believe it, try to translate this with ezTrans XP. ezTrans XP will crash. To fix this bug, I changed Oh! Text Hooker. Now, Oh! Text Hooker will not pass long sentences ( more than 120 characters. ) to ezTrans XP.
Add "Print invisible text" option. This option usually prints garbage
characters. But, it sometimes prints useful characters. If you can't get what
you want, try to turn on this option.
Fix a potential race condition bug.
FAQ is updated.
Oh! Text Hooker ver 0.3p8 ( 2003/12/05 )
Some users reported me that the characters are broken in Japanese locale. It was because the font setting menu is a little bit confusing. From this version, any fonts can be set without any confusion. If the Korean character is not displayed in Japanese locale, set the font as Gulim.
FAQ is updated.

Oh! Text Hooker ver 0.3p2 ( 2003/11/19 )
Some users told me that Oh! Text Hooker prints too many garbage characters. So I tried to fix the problem. This version may be better or worse than the last version. Because some text may not be hooked. In my opinion, this version is better. If you are suffered by garbage characters, try to use this version.

ezTrans XP plugin is added ( jkeztrans.dll ).
It is programmed by nightknight, a team leader of Arcadia Studio. The source code is written in Borland Delphi and is included in the document directory. SPECIAL THANKS TO NIGHTKNIGHT.
To use jkeztrans.dll, ezTrans XP should be installed in the PC. ezTrans XP is a commercial Japanese-Korean, Korean-Japanese translator software. You can buy ezTrans XP from ChangshinSoft
In my opinion, jkeztrans.dll is better than bbtrans.dll. So, if you have installed Babel TOP 2002 and ezTrans XP, use ezTrans XP ( jkeztrans.dll ).
In about dialog box, it displays the correct version number. The previous version displayed the wrong version number.

Babel TOP 2002 plugin is added ( bbtrans.dll ).
bbtrans.dll is using Oh! Babel Helper Library.
To use bbtrans.dll, Babel TOP 2002 should be installed in the PC. Babel TOP 2002 is a commercial Japanese-Korean, Korean-Japanese translator software. You can buy Babel TOP 2002 from Unisoft.
jktrans.dll is removed from the plugin directory, but its source code is still available in the document directory.
jktrans.dll doesn't work now. ( 2003/07/25 )
I am very sorry to inform you of sad news. Japanese-Korean translation plugin for Oh! Text Hooker doesn't work now. Another free Japanese-Korean translation web service got blocked also as I expected. :-(
Now, I decided to stop supporting jktrans.dll until I get the information about the reasonable way to translate Japanese into Korean. ( I DO NOT want the translation application but translation library. ) If there is anyone who knows about it, please let me know. And if you look at jktrans.dll source code, included in the Oh! Text Hooker zip file, you can easily understand what I want.
Actually, I tried to contact various Japanese-Korean translation application companies such as Changshin Soft, Unisoft, and so on. However, I couldn't get any help.
Oh! Text Hooker ver 0.2p2 ( 2003/07/13 )
Free Japanese-Korean translation web service that was used in the plugin is finally blocked as I expected.
I changed to another free Japanese-Korean translation web service.
After this free Japanese-Korean translation web service is blocked, I will not continue to support this plugin.
If you can, please make a good translation plugin for everyone.
