Tools like Verifika offer more advanced QA checks for translation consistency: you can instruct them to ignore numbers etc. and they can also check in the reverse direction (same target, different source).

For OS X I've created an AppleScript. (For Windows an AHK script for Notepad++ should be possible.)

Purpose: Check your translation project both on identical source segments with different translations and on identical translations with different source segment

Tools like Verifika offer more advanced QA checks for translation consistency: you can instruct them to ignore numbers etc. and they can also check in the reverse direction (same target, different source).

For OS X I've created an AppleScript. (For Windows an AHK script for Notepad++ should be possible.)

Purpose: Check your translation project both on identical source segments with different translations and on identical translations with different source segments, while ignoring differences in tags, numbers, punctuation marks and spaces.

Usage:

  • Export your current project as a TMX file.
  • Open it in TextWrangler.
  • Open the script in the Script Editor and run it.
  • Check the two files "Identical sources" and "Identical targets".
  • Make any necessary modifications to your project while navigating to the relevant segments via the Find dialogue box.

Have fun with this script!
