Dear colleagues,

Do you know any language identifying tools for processing tmx files?

Polyglot Dec 11, 2014

I don't know anything about .tmx files, but I use a language identifier called Polyglot 3000.

Interesting Dec 11, 2014

I didn't know there were GUI language ID tools.
I've played a little bit with a perl module that does this:
http://search.cpan.org/~ambs/Lingua-Identify-0.56/lib/Lingua/Identify.pm
It seems to work pretty well.

If you need to do this automatically on a large number of files, I may be able to write a perl script to do it.

The question is ?? Dec 11, 2014

On principle, any .tmx file includes language indentifiers. So, what is the question?

Mislabeled Dec 12, 2014

I assumed that the tmx files in question have incorrect or missing language identifiers.
On second thought, it may well be a case of having a bunch of tmx files (potentially hundreds or even thousands) and needing to sort them, e.g. find all the en-fr files among the lot based on the language codes. That could also be automated with software. It would be easier than recognizing them based on the text itself.
