Known Bugs
Windows:Fixed as of Apertium r74180.apertium-transfer
has issues with UTF-8 streams. Will be fixed.- Mac: The Install Language Pairs window under Options > Apertium Native (Nightly) is too small, * the rightmost boxes on each line are not visible. On Windows, the size is right.
- Mac: Different types of formatting marks show up as <f0/>, <t1/> and similar tags, and the give rise to Error: Input is empty - nothing to parse! in the MT window .This happens when the original has e.g. hyperlinks or non-ascii letters.
