A better way to edit a TM?

I have been struggling to edit a rather large TM because of how painfully slow the memoQ editor is. It's slow even on good computers and medium-size TM's, is that the case for you folks as well?

Anyway, I was wondering if there was a better way to do this. There's no option to export the TM in a format other than TMX.

Thanks.

Export to TMX, edit in Heartsome TMX editor (open source), reimport. That's what I do. As long as the TMX isn't larger than 1GB, which is the biggest it can handle.

Choose one that fits your OS. I don't know why, but others say that _JRE version is a better choice.
Enjoy.

Export to TMX, edit in [tool], reimport.


Is the export from MemoQ TM to TMX lossless?

Thanks a million, Michael. I can't believe I didn't know this existed.

I use it almost every day, and really hope someone continues working on it, or finally gets around to finishing the new (‘alpha’) version of the old Okapi Olifant (another great TMX editor). The old version can be downloaded at http://okapi.sourceforge.net/downloads.html, and is also very useful for certain things the Heartsome editor might be unable to do, or do as well.

No time to test, but I suspect not entirely.

Thanks again, Michael. I'll give that a try as well.
