Hi,

I did two tests with Toxic v. 0.2.0 (2009-06-22) that apparently worked (since so far no complaints) even though I can't open the final TXML files in Wordfast to see if it worked.

The only glitch is that when I want to go from TXML to .tox, I can only the cmd console, because the little toxic.exe does not work. When I want to convert back from .tox to TXML, then I have to use the toxic.exe because the cmd doesn't work.

No idea why. As long as it works ... See more

No idea why. As long as it works this way, however, that's all that mattes. ▲ Collapse

Toxic is now a thing of the past.

TXML files are supported natively by OmegaT since OmegaT 2.5.0 (2011-09-27), if source=target (only the target segments are read).

If the files contain existing translation, you can use the Okapi plugin:
http://www.opentag.com/okapi/wiki/index.php?title=Okapi_Filters_Plugin_for_OmegaT&redirect=no

On this page, the URL for the stable version is wrong, it is now:
https://bintray.com/okapi/Distribution

The Okapi plugin requires Java 1.7.

TXML doesn't work in my Omegat Mar 26, 2014

This doesn't work in my Omegat 2.6.3. Only a very small number of the total segments appears when I load the TXML file.

I'm going to try the Okapi filter to see if it helps.

Probably because not all segments have source=target Mar 27, 2014

If "some" appear, that shows it works, but that probably not all segments have source=target. As TXML is a rather simple format, you could check this by loading the TXML file in a text editor (e.g., Notepad).

I'm going to try the Okapi filter to see if it helps.

That's generally the best solution. When using the Okapi filter, do not forget to uncheck OmegaT native filter.
