TermCuts: Trados term viewing/insertion made easier... Thread poster: Jaroslaw Michalak

Inspired by the discussion in this thread: http://www.proz.com/forum/sdl_trados_support/133592-how_to_save_as_utf_8-page2.html I have whipped up a small script for Autohotkey, which presents the found terms in a nice window, and allows to insert them with a single shortcut (Alt+number in the first column). The script takes the default Open segment shortcut (Alt+Home), naturally you can change it, but then also change the sequence sent after that (so that TagEditor/Word responds correctly). It took me about four hours, imagine what a real programmer could do with that software Naturally, all comments and suggestions are welcome. (BTW, I tried to make the columns resize automatically when the window is resized, but could not do that... Too little experience with AHK GUI, I'm afraid...). Here's the code: Code:

; The sleep command is necessary, as MultiTerm is not very fast...
; The exact value depends on the termbase size, I suppose, so

Forgot to add that you need to download the ws4ahk.ahk script from here: http://www.autohotkey.net/~easycom/ and put it with my script (or specify full path in the #include directive). | | |

Well, well... It takes years Trados/Multiterm programmers were unable to switch to the term list view... PS. How many time you spent to write it?

As I wrote, it took about four hours, most of which I spent working out the intricacies of using Windows objects in AHK and getting to know the ListView options. I did not want to bother with Visual Basic or .Net Express, as it requires some bloatware, although it would be faster there. Also, I have copped out by copying and replacing the number key code, I guess a loop would have been much more elegant, but as it was faster and it works, you cannot really blame me (blame MultiTerm ). | |
