Hey All!
Creating a source tarball of Google's translate from git;
git clone https://github.com/soimort/translate-shell.git
cd translate-shell
git archive --format=tar --prefix=trans-0.9.7.1/ v0.9.7.1 | xz > trans-0.9.7.1.tar.xz
You should now have a file called trans-0.9.7.1.tar.xz in the translate-shell directory ready for further action.  After bulding and installing 'trans --version' reports;
 <Esc>:read !trans -no-ansi -version | sed 's/^/ trans> /'
