How to install the script

$ git clone https://github.com/timgrossmann/Anytranslate.git ~/.hammerspoon/anytranslate

Now you simply need to add

dofile("./anytranslate/anytranslate.lua")

to the init.lua file inside of the .hammerspoon folder.

If you don't have an init.lua file, just create it

How to install Hammerspoon

Go the the HammerSpoon Webpage and check out "How do I install it?"

Once installed just make sure you have accessibility enabled in the preferences.

Setup

Enter your keys and languages into the script file. Defaults are "de"(german) to en("english")

You can get the translation api key here: https://tech.yandex.com/translate/
