I sometimes get requests about when and if I’m going to support Linux (or the Mac). In fact, several Felix users are almost completely on Linux, and only go back to Windows for applications like Felix.
I do have some non-concrete plans to support Linux (and by extension the Mac) in the future.
Firstly, I plan to [...]

By far, the most common tech-support inquiry I get has to do with the DHTML edit control. Until now, Felix has used this control to provide WYSIWYG (visual) editing of translation entries.

I’m working on the next version of Memory Serves now, so I’m doing a lot of dogfooding with it. I’ve thus been using Memory Serves pretty much exclusively over the past month for my own translation work.
Over the course of using Memory Serves intensively, I’ve uncovered quite a few areas needing improvement; which is good, [...]
