Spanish to English translations [PRO]
Tech/Engineering - IT (Information Technology) / POS terminals
Spanish term or phrase: portado
Hi, I would appreciate help with this term.

This is regarding Point of Sale terminals in Commercial Centres, although this term relates to computing.

Context is:
"VNC: son las siglas en inglés de Virtual Network Computing (Computación en Red Virtual). VNC es un programa de software libre basado en una estructura cliente‐servidor el cual nos permite tomar el control del ordenador servidor remotamente a través de un ordenador cliente. También llamado software de escritorio remoto. VNC permite que el sistema operativo en cada computadora sea distinto: Es posible compartir la pantalla de una máquina de "cualquier" sistema operativo conectando desde cualquier otro ordenador o dispositivo que disponga de un cliente VNC portado."
Thanks :)

ported
Explanation:
porting, in this context, is the IT equivalent of language translation.
As suggested by the ST, the VNC system can work with any operating system provided that the VNC software has been suitably 'ported' - i.e. translated/re-written/adapted into code that the OS can understand and inter-act with.

  -> Gracias FVS.

disagree  pclews: Of course the software needs to be installed on the client. But the point being made here is that the client can use ANY operating system, so the program has to be "translated" (ported) for that operating system.

  -> Yes, "ported to the O/S of the client machine" makes sense in the context.
