: D. Barron recently posted features he'd want in a "perfect"
: Klingon-English Translator. I wanted to describe our work towards
: this end, and hopefully build up interest in our work, for its
: eventual release.

: Many of the features D. Barron described are already present. All the
: features will be part of the new version, which is designed around a
: Windows-style interface, for DOS. (If you're using Windows, it'll run
: in a DOS box, and if you're using 3.1, you can use the mouse w/ the
: program in a DOS box). A less-featured version is being prepared for
: Unix environments. As of yet, none of our programmers uses a
: Macintosh, so that platform is not yet supported, unless your Mac has
: a DOS emulator, which, I understand, tends to be rather slow.

: I'm very excited about the future of this project, and eagerly
: anticipate the time we can release our work to an (un)suspecting

Cool...Anthony Appleyard (a.appleyard@fs1.mt.umist.ac.uk) has developed a
Klingon-to-English parser which is quite good. It's written in C, intended for
MS-DOS, but I'm running it on a UNIX system and it seems to work fine. I'm sure
it could be ported to the Mac as well.
