<br>Hi, Oliver, <div><br></div><div>I use MT (google and deepl). I agree that the MT spares a lot of writing but it still need a very careful checking and corrections. </div><div>I‘ve written small bash scripts and a program in c++ that creates a translated po file from template and dictionary file in plain text format and then use the computer created po file as synchronisation source in Lokalize. This process is relativ slow and error prone and is suitable for large po file. I am not a developer and the code is not very matured. On the other side I‘m not aware of open source and free po editor which incorporates the automatic MT. </div><div><br></div><div>Cheers </div><div><br></div><div>Mincho<br><br><div class="yahoo-signature"><br></div><br><p class="yahoo-quoted-begin" style="font-size: 15px; color: #715FFA; padding-top: 15px; margin-top: 0">Am Mittwoch, Mai 17, 2023, 1:00 PM schrieb kde-i18n-doc-request@kde.org:</p><blockquote class="iosymail"><div dir="ltr">Send kde-i18n-doc mailing list submissions to<br></div><div dir="ltr"> <a ymailto="mailto:kde-i18n-doc@kde.org" href="mailto:kde-i18n-doc@kde.org">kde-i18n-doc@kde.org</a><br></div><div dir="ltr"><br></div><div dir="ltr">To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit<br></div><div dir="ltr"> <a href="https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-i18n-doc" target="_blank">https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-i18n-doc</a><br></div><div dir="ltr">or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to<br></div><div dir="ltr"> <a ymailto="mailto:kde-i18n-doc-request@kde.org" href="mailto:kde-i18n-doc-request@kde.org">kde-i18n-doc-request@kde.org</a><br></div><div dir="ltr"><br></div><div dir="ltr">You can reach the person managing the list at<br></div><div dir="ltr"> <a ymailto="mailto:kde-i18n-doc-owner@kde.org" href="mailto:kde-i18n-doc-owner@kde.org">kde-i18n-doc-owner@kde.org</a><br></div><div dir="ltr"><br></div><div dir="ltr">When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific<br></div><div dir="ltr">than "Re: Contents of kde-i18n-doc digest..."<br></div><div dir="ltr"><br></div><div dir="ltr"><br></div><div dir="ltr">Today's Topics:<br></div><div dir="ltr"><br></div><div dir="ltr"> 1.
