Hello everyone
I'm doing a lot of work for a client who wants me to use their Chrome-based CAT tool which doesn't have very good time-saving functionality w.r.t. repetitive text. Sometimes I encounter a segment that is highly similar to one just a few segments previously, but since the previous sentence's translation hasn't been reviewed yet (by the client's reviewer), it doesn't come up in the translation memory pane. Or, sometimes I have to type a word or pair of words that I have already typed several times in the past few minutes, even if there would not be a TM match for it anyway.
So I was hoping for a program that keeps track of what I type, and then suggest words or phrases based on what I type later. Do you know of such a program?
On previous operating systems, I used LetMeType, which can suggest phrases of up to three words long, but it currently doesn't really work in any of my programs. I tried Typing Assistant, but it only remembers single words unless specific phrases are loaded into its memory. So Typing Assistant is great for long words, but not for phrases and near complete sentences.
Can you recommend any program for me? It doesn't have to be free or cheap.
Thanks
Samuel
...Typing Assistant (Windows only) for quite some years. You don't have to define shortcuts, it's predictive and can be very useful. I did non upgrade from v8.1 as it's enough for my needs and has become very expensive (149$).
