The 1.8 version of OmegaT is now released as a stable version (1.8.1)
OmegaT comes with a completely revised manual, including a new comprehensive index.
Compared to the previous 1.7, 1.8 offers 17 functional enhancements, such as a long-awaited spell checker. Using Hunspell, the same dictionary engine as in OpenOffice.org, it allows spell checking in more than 80 languages.
Stability has also been improved, with several bug corrections.
OmegaT is available in 28 languages, including a new Portuguese (Portugal) localization, and the user interface has already been updated in Albanian, Belarusian, Catalan, Czech, Dutch, French, Serbo-Croatian and Slovak.
The OmegaT Project always welcomes developers, localizers and users to contribute their experience, knowledge and insights to the software we release.
Note that 1.8.1 might not appear immediately on omegat.org.
