Re: gtk+ based translation tool



I believe text editor plugins are most popular between experienced
translators. Showing the raw message catalog could be a barrier to
newbies, but I'm not sure. What I really miss in text editor plugins
are automatic fuzzy translation and terminology-based suggestions.
Maybe gedit's plugin could use omegaT
[http://www.omegat.org/omegat/omegat.html] or translate-toolkit
[http://translate.sourceforge.net/]?

as is saying Baris this is another topic, maybe we can start another
one :)

I prefer what Fernando [1] show me at GUADEC, a plugin for Gedit which
consists in a side pane with the string being translated and the english
counterpart but with the file in the main area as always, so you can
have files opened to consult (comprendiums, dictionaries, etc  etc)
