Going to the segment you need is quite easy in OmegaT (in most cases, but when it’s not, there is the wonderful scripting functionality).

Export #OmegaT Project to Excel (UPDATE)
The earlier version of this script was described in this article. Here I’m announcing the update to the script which makes it possible to include:
- Segment ID for each segment (applicable only for some file types)
- Translator’s ID of the segment’s translation creator
- Translator’s ID of the segment’s translation editor
- Segment notes
- Visual marks to show segments’ uniqueness or repetitions (grayish background, marks
1or+in the dedicated column: for the first occurrence, or further instances of the repeated segment, respectfully) - Visual marks for alternative translations (different font color, mark
awith a different background in the dedicated column) - Visual marks for untranslated segments (mark
NTin the dedicated column) - Visual marks for paragraph boundaries (upper border over the source and target text which visually groups the text belonging to the same paragraph)
All of the above features are optional, though they are on by default. To disable or change them, editing the script is required, but all those lines are very easy to understand, they have comments, and are placed almost in the very beginning of the script:
Unlike the earlier version, the script produces the tabular output:
| Segment # | Source Text | Target Text | Uniq/Al | Segment ID | Creator | Changer | Note |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
The script can be downloaded from
SF.net repository

Export OmegaT project to an HTML table
A few years ago I wrote a script that exported the whole OmegaT to an HTML table. I used it a lot myself, and I know quite a few other people found it helpful too. The problem with the table produced by that script was that it had no way to show repeated or alternatively translated segments. I’ve rewritten the script since, but never published an announcement about that new version. Now I did a few more changes, and thought that it’s about time to fix that omission.
Continue reading#OmegaT Merge/Split script updated
These days I often get jobs in IDML format. Luckily such files can be translated in OmegaT either with the Okapi filters plugin, or, if the files are not so plain and simple, by creating an OmegaT project in Okapi Rainbow. But it’s somewhat beyond the point. The point is that with these files the wonderful script to merge and split segments wasn’t working, at least for merging.
As you’ve rightly guessed, this tiny post is to inform you that it has been fixed, and the updated script could be downloaded from the SF.net repository.
December 2022 update: The updated merge and split script is described here.

Happy merging and splitting, fellow OmegaTers!
Unlock Text Caret on #OmegaT Startup
As many have probably noticed, in OmegaT it’s now possible to unlock cursor. This means that one can select and copy text anywhere in the Editor pane without using the mouse. With the unlocked cursor you simply press up or down, and the text caret will move beyond the target segment. The lock is triggered with F2. Cool! But there’s no way to make this behavior default — every time OmegaT is started, cursor is locked.
Since I prefer it to be unlocked most of the time, here’s a little workaround. Below is a little script that needs to go into scripts_folder/application_startup/:
def gui() {
editor.editor.lockCursorToInputArea = false
editor.editor.updateLockInsertMessage()
}
return
This little snippet should be saved as a plaintext file with extension groovy, for instance, unlock.groovy. Next time OmegaT 4.2 or newer is started, the cursor is going to be unlocked from the get-go!

#ISO 9:1995 #Transliteration in #OmegaT
This short announcement might be of some interest to those OmegaT users who work with Cyrillic text. Below you’ll find a script that transliterates current target or selection according to transliteration standard ISO 9 (one of the very few reversible Cyrillic translit systems). The script is a tiny adaptation of the one discussed in the article Translit для JavaScript.
All you need to do is to copy it into your scripts folder and run it when there’s something you need transliterated (can be run multiple times — it’ll toggle the text between Cyrillic and Latin). If the text is not transliterateable, the script will not change it.
Here’s the link to the script: http://pastebin.com/npXEthmc (download).

Changing line 16 from ‘false’ to ‘true’ will make the script use diacritics for transliteration.
Major update to #OmegaT QA Script
Sometime ago my monkey approach to programming led me to creating a GUI for QA rules checking script. That was fun, the result was sometimes even usable, but since I don’t really know how to program, I got stuck with developing it. Ok, a rule or two was added now and then, but that doesn’t really count. But then all of a sudden the spellcheck script in OmegaT got drastically improved, and that meant I could mimic some new ideas. That’s exactly what I did, and here’s the new “QA – Check Rules” script:
True Translation
