Version 0.2 of XLIFF Translator released

I’ve just released version 0.2 of XLIFF Translator.

You can download the latest version here.

This is still beta software, so please use for evaluation only.

Here are the main improvements to this version:

  • Support for opening single XLIFF files

    When you open an XLIFF file, the file’s directory is opened as the current project, and the XLIFF file is selected in the translation view.

  • Wide range of XLIFF files passing test suite.

    An XLIFF Translator user kindly supplied me with a variety of XLIFF files, and XLIFF Translator can handle all of them.

  • Japanese localization finished.

    There were a few strings that didn’t have Japanese localizations. I’ve added those translations in this version.

Thanks to user ysavourel who provided great feedback in the Felix forums.

Memory Serves

Version 1.6 of Memory Serves released

I’ve just released version 1.6 of Memory Serves.

You can download the latest version here.

Here are the main improvements in this version:

  • Global search and replace

    Now you can search and replace in all memories/glossaries at once

  • Download search results

    You can download the search results as a TM file. This is useful for things like creating a TM/glossary for all entries added in a given date range, created by a specified user, or containing a certain word.

  • You can add records from the Web interface.
  • Records on browse page and in search results are edited in place.

    Before, when you clicked “Edit” for a record in a search result, after editing you would be sent to the search page with your search cleared. Now, you edit records in place, so you stay on the same search results page.

Felix release

Version 1.5.4 of Felix released

I’ve just released version 1.5.4 of Felix.

Download the latest version here.

This release doesn’t have a lot of new features, but it includes major bug fixes and some performance improvements. Because this version includes several bug fixes, I recommend that everyone upgrade if that’s possible.

A summary of the new features/improvements follows.

Felix

  • Bug fix: In the Search Window, searching using an invalid date format would crash Felix.
  • Improved performance with Memory Serves remote memories.
  • Bug fix: Word did not stay in review mode when switching documents.
  • Made search menu items uniform across memory window and glossary window.
  • Bug fix: When a translation was shown in review mode, clicking “Edit” in Felix would bring up a different entry.
  • Bug fix: Editing a record would also change the “created by” and “date created” values.
  • Improved wording used in Japanese UI.
  • Bug fix: Bad date formats were causing Felix to fail to load TMs. Felix now falls back to using the local date/time when it finds a bad date format.
  • Bug fix: an error would appear if a macro was called on Felix while the main window wasn’t visible.

Excel

  • Bug fix: “Look up next” command (Alt + L and the menu command) did not work.

PowerPoint

  • Certain abbreviations ending in periods (“Mr.”, “Dr.”, “Mrs.” etc.) are no longer recognized as ending the segment.
