Free translation software for Linux

Free translation software for Linux

Under the name OpenLogos GlobalWare AG is offering to private individuals, universities and other public institutions a free translation system for Linux. The software can be downloaded from the website of the German Research Center for Artificial Intelligence (DFKI).

The software is currently available for translations from German, French, Spanish, Portuguese and Italian into English and vice versa. If German is the source or target language, the user can also pick French or Spanish in place of English. A PostgreSQL database is indispensable for using the software. Future versions are to be made to work with other databases also and to be equipped with a graphical user interface. The current version accepts input via the command line only.

For free software developed on an OpenLogos basis the GNU General Public License GPL applies. Companies that wish to integrate the translation system into commercial programs need to acquire a commercial license from GlobalWare.
