TMX to TEXT

This script converts a TMX (Translation Memory eXchange) file to a text file. The text file will contain the source and target text of the TMX file in a CSV-parsable format.

We provide two implementations of the script:

  • tmx_to_text.py: A simple script that uses the lxml module to parse the TMX file.
  • tmx_to_text (binary): A compiled version of the script written in Rust. Can be faster than the Python version for UTF-8 encoded files.

Usage

Python

python tmx_to_text.py <tmx_file> -s en -t de [-e <utf8,utf16>] -o <output_file>

Rust

tmx_to_text <tmx_file> -s en -t de [-e <utf8,utf16>] -o <output_file>

Installation

For Python, just make sure you have the lxml module installed:

pip install lxml

For Rust, you can download the binary from the releases page or compile it yourself with cargo:

cargo build --release
