CAT Tools

Hi Mimamur,

There are a few basic CAT tools, but the major ones still don't provide support for macOS as far as I know (checked the last time sometime in december). You can, however, look for browser-based CAT tools and completely avoid installing Windows..

Regarding the installation of Windows - you can do that via BootCamp or via a virtual machine.

If you do it via BootCamp, you'll bascially work only on Windows without access to the macOS features (I doubt you want this).

If you use a virtual machine (VM), you can use the macOS and run the CAT tools "in the background" on Windows.

I'm using a virtual machine as I want the macOS to be my main OS and the VM just for the CAT tools.

Let me know should you need any further help!

Cheers!

If I counted correctly, there are eighty three possible meanings of "CAT" listed here.

Which might you possibly mean? None jumped out when I read this list as being the obvious choice.

Thanks for your clarification and information. I learned quite a bit ...

I did find several possibilities listed when I did a Google search for "computer aided translation Mac". Other folks have clearly asked this question before, as you will see there are several articles from reputable sources referenced there.
