I just start using OmegaT (about 1 hour ago) to translate/localise an interface written in C which the client has supplied in a txt file with something like:
$c_capt_searchto[BY_DEPARTURE] = "Departures To:";
$c_capt_searchto[BY_ORDERDATE] = "Creation Date To:";
$c_capt_searchto[BY_STAY] = "Stay To:";
$c_capt_searchid[BY_CUSTOMER] = "Customer Name:";
$c_capt_searchid[BY_ORDERNUMBER] = "Reference Number:";
My question is about paragr... See more I just start using OmegaT (about 1 hour ago) to translate/localise an interface written in C which the client has supplied in a txt file with something like:

$c_capt_searchid[BY_ORDERNUMBER] = "Reference Number:";
My question is about paragraph segmentation. OmegaT treats the first 3 lines as a paragraph (1 segment) and the 2nd lot as a separate paragraph (2nd segment) even though each of these lines has a paragraph return at the end. Is there a setting so OmegaT does it line by line (each line is already a paragraph as I can see.)
Can anyone help please? Thank you in advance. ▲ Collapse

In Project > Properties > Segmentation, modify the segmentation rules so that OmegaT segments after :";
- see the manual for precise details.

Since you mention a text file, I suppose you use the text filter. In which case you have three possible ways of interpreting paragraphs. The options are:
Segment source text into paragraphs on:
- Line breaks
- Empty lines
- Never
You are obviously using the second option. To change it, go to Options/File Filters/Options.
That said, OmegaT has a specific filter for the kind of document you are localizing.
It is called "Key=Value text files". It will automatically recognize the "=" in your document, so you will have only "Departures To:"; to translate, instead of $c_capt_searchto[BY_DEPARTURE] = "Departures To:";
To use this filter, you can simply rename your text file to .ini.

| As Marc + specific stuff for .txt files | May 20, 2008 |
Check Options > File Filters, select "Text Files" and click on Options.
You can set segmentation to be at "line breaks", "Empty lines", or "Never".
Select the first.
You'll also need to create a few specific rules to separate the code from the contents.
