Hi Martin,

Maybe IBM's ICU Library can be counted there, although it's a translation tool. But It includes utilities to convert back and fore
ICU resources to/from XLIFF.
<http://icu.sourceforge.net/userguide/ResourceManagement.html>

You can also work with XLIFF files with many translation tools, as long as they support XML. But obviously it's not a *direct*
support for XLIFF.

Cheers,

Subject: [xliff-tools] How many XLIFF tools?

Dear all,

After lurking in the background for a while, I would like to introduce myself and ask a little question.
I have been working as a technical translator for more than 5 years and I am currently specialising in the field of software
localisation. In the course of my studies, I have come across XLIFF and got interested in the matter. I think, if properly
implemented, this format has the potential to become the standard for all translation/localisation work and would make thinks a lot
easier.

Now for my question. I am currently trying to get an idea of which tools at the moment offer support for XLIFF. Here's what I've
come up with so far:
- Heartsome XLIFF editor
- Passolo
- Catalyst
- Multilizer
- SDLX
- Trados 7
- Editor from Sun (not released, yet)
- Transolution for Linux
- KBabel (not quite yet)
- ENLASO tools

How many and which have I missed? Thanks a million for your hints.

Best regards,

Martin
