translation proggy wanted

Hi folks!

Being in the need of a CAT-program (Computer Aided Translation/Computer-assisted Translation), I'd like to know about your recommendations and experiences! It should of course work well with the common office solutions and unicode -- and preferably with LaTeX.

thx a lot

Edit:// Nevertheless I wonder if there is any that would meet all wishes; alternatively in the end one could simply c+p some translated stuff into an editor for further TeXing

The only free one I've heard of is http://www.omegat.org, but I haven't used it.

Re: translation proggy wanted

I used OmegaT recently. I found it less friendly to the occasional translator than Wordfast. (I didn't spend any time learning OmegaT or Wordfast). But Wordfast is closed and for MS Word only...

edit: IIRC, the big names CAT vendors are Trados and DéjàVu.
