'''Lokalize''' is also a general computer-aided translation system (CAT) with which you can translate OpenDocument files (*.odt).

svn checkout -N svn://anonsvn.kde.org/home/kde/trunk/KDE/kdesdk/
 
cd kdesdk && svn up cmake doc lokalize

Install '''libkf5i18n-dev''',  '''libkf5completion-dev''', '''libkf5itemviews-dev''', '''libkf5sonnet-dev''', '''kross-dev''' headers packages and '''libhunspell-dev'''. Then:

Then you click on one of results and this opens appropriate file, on appropriate entry. When you want to do another search during the same day, you skip updating step and just type what you're searching for. You can filter TM search results by filename using the field left side of the F7 panel (Filemask).

Lokalize
Lokalize
Lokalize is the localization tool for KDE and other open source software

Lokalize is also a general computer-aided translation system (CAT) with which you can translate OpenDocument files (*.odt). Translate-Toolkit is used internally to extract text for translation from .odt to .xliff files and to merge translation back into .odt file.

Compiling Lokalize from KDE trunk

Install libkf5i18n-dev, libkf5completion-dev, libkf5itemviews-dev, libkf5sonnet-dev, kross-dev headers packages and libhunspell-dev. Then:

git clone git://anongit.kde.org/lokalize

or

git clone [email protected]:lokalize

and

cd lokalize
 mkdir build
 cd build
 cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=RelWithDebInfo ..
 make -j2
 ./src/lokalize

Downloading Lokalize binaries for Windows

The latest release build of Lokalize for Windows is available as a build artifact in the Windows Qt5.15 project, under [sidebar] > Deploy > Package registry, at https://invent.kde.org/teams/ci-artifacts/windows-qt5.15/-/packages ; search for "Lokalize" and choose a "release" build.

The latest nightly build of Lokalize for Windows is also available at the same place; search for "Lokalize" and choose a "master" build.

Tips and tricks

Search in files

Translation Memory (TM) now keeps track of where each translation pair came from. So when you want to search for string in the files on disk, you just drag the directory with those files onto translation memory tab (F7) to update TM, wait a minute or two, then type your string into right field of Translation Memory tab, then press Enter.

Then you click on one of results and this opens appropriate file, on the appropriate entry. When you want to do another search during the same day, you skip the updating step and just type what you're searching for. You can filter TM search results by filename using the field left side of the F7 panel (Filemask).
