I am not (yet) an expert on OmegaT+ but I hope to be soon. if I remember correctly, Trados is partly owned by MS). Not to mention that Mac users who want to use Windows-only Trados on their Macs need to buy: Win XP, Parallels or VMware (unless they use Bootcamp) and, naturally, an Intel Mac. Which is an amazingly high price, to say the least. I have no idea what bee got into LASERAY's bonnet, but OmegaT+ is a solid alternative to the incredibly expensive CAT programs, first and foremost TRADOS which sells in Europe at EUR 1000 ($1600) or thereabouts. I've downloaded the most recent version, which is OmegaT+ 1.0 (the + is a nice step up in terms of features and usability). Very nice free program that is continually developing and improving. My inclination is to explain things in the way I want rather than having to submit a whole thesis before I may talk.Īnyway, as long as their no kind of limit on how I might comment, I will comment as I like. Plus I have already explained my position to others many times before.

And even if I point to proof, investigating by asking OmegaT (to see the other side) will only lead to them denying it, lying, and other incredibly skewed reactions. Much of the activity is documented on public forums/mailing lists. It's the honest thing to do."Įxcuse me, that would be rather long. your past work with the OmegaT team and your grudge against them. "In any case, please premise all your comments with the information re. If projects do not want to conduct their activities in a just manner then they should go away or change their license. there is a whole philosophy behind that and it is very important, not just to me, but to the future of FOSS for projects to act properly. The points I make are germane due to the software being released as FOSS under the GPL. It is your opinion and I see no notice about not commenting on aspects beyond the basic usage or things that you deem appropriate. Not here at Macupdate, in my opinion, though I'm honest enough to admit I may be wrong." " As to the perhaps justifiably (perhaps not) upset laseray, how you were treated while working on OmegaT software development is something that Macupdate posters know nothing about and may or may not be relevant to how well the software works, but what seems clear is that you have a grudge against the software maker that may be more properly discussed and settled in another venue, such as a labor rights and/or intellectual property rights case. And newer OmegaT+ has improved compatibility on Mac (have been working on that in the past weeks). compatibility, but it is Mac-compatible and doesn't force you to use Windows and Word for Windows, etc." "It's tough to master (as are all translation memory programs) and there may be questions re. When the next version (1.0.M2) is out then you might have a little more to go on. Insufficient information for you to come to that conclusion. So it is a little odd that you would think so. Yes, this is the case, but I have only released one version of OmegaT+. "OmegaT+ is a solid and improving alternative to the incredibly expensive Trados." I never said you insulted me, where did you read that? But you did mix up OmegaT and OmegaT+ and still have to some extent in this current reply. And I am someone who knows what they are talking about. Update apt database with apt-get using the following command.I've already got clues and I'm giving them to you about OmegaT. In the following sections we will describe each method. There are three ways to install omegat on Debian 10. Okapi plugin can further extend the supported formats, for example to

OpenDocument, Open XML (MS Office 2007), DocBook and (x)HTML, andĪlso localization formats such as Java properties and PO files. OmegaT supports 24 formats, including documentation formats such as
