Text Translation Tool (TTT)

How it Works

Fast, Efficient Translations

With TTT, you can generate multiple language versions of the graphical user interfaces you have built with LegaSuite GUI. You can also generate multiple language versions of iSeries green-screen applications. TTT enables you to translate applications in record time and in any language you choose — even right-to-left and double-byte character set languages.

Think globally, speak locally

Used by application vendors and multi-national companies around the world, TTT is the only tool of its kind on the market. Seagull Software's TTT can help you:

• Translate GUI applications built with LegaSuite GUI and traditional iSeries green-screen applications 70 to 85 percent faster than traditional methods, giving you faster access to new markets.
• "Speak" any of the world's 6,700 languages to compete in global markets and comply with multilingual regulations.
• Protect your technology investment by preventing the introduction of errors into the application source code.
• Allow non-technical translators to easily work with application screens, bridging the gap between technologists and language experts.

Faster, easier, safer translations

TTT separates the science of application development from the art of language translation. Your translators never touch the actual application source code and don't need to know a thing about programming. Instead, translators work offline on a PC, making changes only to the text.

To translate your GUI application, you'll simply need TTT/PC and LegaSuite GUI Builder. TTT/PC includes everything you need to translate GUI panels for an IBM zSeries, DEC VT/UNIX, VME or iSeries application.

Best of all, when you release a new version of your applications, you don't have to look for text changes. TTT does the work for you by using the dictionaries built from the first translation and checking the new source against the existing dictionary, prompting translators only when an unfamiliar word or phrase is found.
