== OmegaT+ Machine Aided Human Translation Platform ==
[http://omegatplus.sourceforge.net OmegaT+] is a set of free
machine-aided human translation(MAHT) tools useful to translators and other language professionals in their work.
It is a project that is hosted on [http://www.sourceforge.net SourceForge], a repository of free software projects and other resources.
Tools developed on this project include OmegaT+, bitext2tmx,
and Validator. There are also a few other third party applications included.
OmegaT+, the application, is an upcoming new version of omegat, also hosted on the project, that is a document processor used by translators to translate document contents. It includes various features, such as translation memory via [http://www.lisa.org/tmx TMX], glossary function, exact and approximate matching, file filters for assorted document types (DocBook, HTML/XHTML, Java properties, OpenDocument (ODF), OpenOffice.org (OOo), OOXML, plain text, and a few others. MS Office formats are handled by conversion to ODF or OOo before use; via free tools such as [http://www.openoffice,org OpenOffice.org]), and a translation project oriented paradigm for managing work.
[http://bitext2tmx.sourceforge.net bitext2tmx] is an aligner/converter to [http://www.lisa.org/tmx TMX] application that enables users to create TMX from plain text versions of a document in two different languages. A user can edit the original and translated text side-by-side to match properly and then save out a TMX that can be used in other applications, like OmegaT+, thereby enabling more reuse of previous translation in other new translations.
Validator is a simple application to validate TMX to ensure that they conform properly to the standard and are not broken or corrupted. A user can also clean out invalid characters that could break the TMX when used with certain applications.
==== History ====
OmegaT+ was first started in June 2005. It was initially the result of a fork of OmegaT, but intended as a suite of applications and not primarily a single application.
