this is IMHO the way to go. A "proper" DB engine should offer certain advantages over handling plain text based things like TMX. TMX, as the name says, is a format made for Translation Memory eXchange. TMX support is important, since it's open, free, and an industry standard, supported by lots of different software, free as well as closed source, specialized localization tools as well as general CATs. Supporting import and export of TMX would make all manner of cooperation and freedom of choice easier. For one, it would make switching *to* Kbabel/Kaider/Lokalizer easier. XLIFF is another such open format, intended for sharing/exchanging translation files (the work proper, not the memory resources). AFAIK, XLIFF was never meant as a translation memory file format. Support for XLIFF would still be a very nice thing. :) BR, Gudmund > On Jan 26, 2008 10:04 PM, Nacho <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > >> >> On Jan 26, 2008 9:44 PM, Leonardo Fontenelle <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >> wrote: >> >>> IIRC TMX is the translation memory format for XLIFF-based tools, and >>> KBabel uses TMX.
