Editor Notes

Transitis a quite powerful tool. It has a very good dictionary feature; itallows the use of multiple translation memories at the same time and alot more. However, as all CAT-Tools it has somemalfunctions, especially while importing and exporting files, andit is also very hard to learn to use, and rather complicated evenafter several months of using it.
