Contributed (non-commercial) tools
Alair II contributed
by Yoshio Hirose
Alair II is a Macintosh-based translation memory software tool, developed on the
Mactinosh platform. Alair II offers most of the key features that freelance
translators expect from Translation Memory software including fuzzy match, an
alignment tool, user defined text parser, and memory import/export. Alair II is
shareware, making it one of the most affordable Translation Memory tools on the
market. There is no "professional" nor "client" version. Neither is there a
"dongle" nor "online key." All features (including import/export) are available
to everyone who owns a copy.
CatsCradle
contributed by Julian

to translate alongside. When done, your translated text is automatically
integrated back into the page. Features include:
- Instant preview of work in progress at the click of a button, any time
- No complex file processing, so web sites remain fully navigable throughout the
translation process.
- Built-in glossary system can automatically suggest words and phrases as you
type.

translation status of each page.

File Watch and
Tree Compare v1.1.4 contributed by
Hans Sussenburger
File Watch periodically (every five minutes) checks specified directories and if
they have changed (have been added, modified, deleted), it will bring up a small
notifier window to telling you which files have changed. Tree Compare compares
all files of an "old tree" with the files of a "new tree" and reports
differences.
The
Frankenstein Tool Suite (alpha release 0.8) contributed by
Hans Sussenburger
Frankenstein is a simple, extensible, free translation memory tool, running
against a SQL database. The Frankenstein Tool Suite consists of BigBadGlossary
and the DataManager. BigBadGlossary is a glossary lookup tool for use with any
editor, word processor, DTP package or any other program that allows copy and
paste. DataManager is the tool you use to create glossaries for BigBadGlossary.
Why Frankenstein? Because it is ugly, and because it is a monster. A freely
downloadable SQL database (HSQL) is the standard package used by Frankenstein.
The Independence
Day Tools contributed by Hans
Sussenburger
The Independence Day Tools consist of jack and ExToRtf, and can be used to
manipulate Trados (tm) 2.x translation memories. The tools are building blocks
that are run in sequence for extracting text from Trados translation memories,
and converting it to Rich Text while preserving the Trados markup (styles).
Trados is not required, hence the name "Independence Day Tools".
Knowledge Server
1.0 contributed by Hans
Sussenburger
Knowledge Server allows you to search text files and ODBC databases over the
Internet. You can output complete documents or only matched records to the
results window.
MSG Browser
contributed by Les Miskow
MSG Browser is a public domain software, which helps translators search
Microsoft glossaries. Version 1.6 of is now available. The alpha testing has
been completed. A couple of minor bugs have been detected and fixed. The group
of alpha testers, consisting of translators using MSGB on everyday bases,
suggested to move version 1.6 Alpha to full 1.6.

files.

contributed by Erich Brandenberger (ITLA)

unlike any other. It pretranslates your documents. Click

Upload
contributed by Hans Sussenburger
Upload is a free tool for uploading files from a client to a web server. It's
unique in that it uses CAB technology to deliver a program to your harddrive for
pre-processing of the upload file. In this example, it only zips the selected
file but you can basically make it do anything a program can do :-) The benefit
of Upload is that it can simplify your work processes greatly. A modified
version could, for example, associate the upload to a project and check the file
into a source control system without any user intervention. It requires Perl
(available separately).
WordFisher
contributed by Tibor Környei
Are you working most of the time on MS Word files of varied subjects? Do you
consider the big commercial translation memory programs like Trados to be
oversized or overpriced for you? Would you like to build and use your own
translation memory without buying such a program?
WordFast and WordAlign
contributed by Champollion
Wordfast is a Translation Memory engine available both for Mac (Ms-Office 98,
2001 & later) and Windows (Ms-Office 97, 2000 & later) systems. Besides
classical translation memory services, Wordfast includes a real-time glossary &
typography checker, ensuring quality & accuracy for both small and
large/distributed projects. WordAlign is a tool for producing Wordfast
translation memories from existing translated documents. Through Wordfast's TMX
export facility, translation memories produced by WordAlign can be used by most
translation memory packages. WordAlign works from within Ms-Word, so that
documents are aligned in their original formats.
