Regarding: Keyboard Maestro
I had everything working. Then came a new version of Keyboard Maestro. The developer had already declared that by no means he was going to facilitate Java apps :(. I'll have to redo nearly all my (mostly case conversion) macros. So a CafeTran-own solution would really be great for me.
I'm on Yosemite here, I'm making my brest wet what will happen if I move to El Capitan ...
BTW: An automation solution could also allow us to add features as: compare length of source segment with length of target segment ;).
@Hans: I'll have to redo nearly all my (mostly case conversion) macros.
Please don't say that you saw that coming ;).
Hans CafeTran Wiki: Please don't say that you saw that coming
I didn't see it coming, although I read somewhere on the forum Peter wasn't going to support Java apps.
Can't you just "put back" the old KBM build, or won't that run onder newer versions of OS X/Java either?

Hans CafeTran Wiki: Change all words between tags to initial uppercase
Can you provide an example? A sentence, please? It's a macro, right? If you want to change all occurrences in the project file, a regex would be (much) easier.

As we say in Holland Caravan Land: dat blijft behelpen
In clear Anglais: native support of automation is always better.

Sentences like:
Don't press the red button.
In CafeTran there are two tags around the translation: 'rode knop'. I'd like to have initial uppercase for all button names:
Blijf met je tengels van de Rode knop af! (Ja, ook jij, Hans!)
Hans CafeTran Wiki: native support of automation is always better.
Native what? Java, CafeTran, or OS X?
Don't press the red button.
I don't understand. What did that KBM macro do?
H.
Find all tags and replace the first letter after a tag with the uppercase version of that letter. I have the same macro for opening quotes. And for characters/symbols that are often used to indicate menu items:
Algemeen > Wifi > Instellingen
It's awfully cool to have all words after such an '>' started with an uppercase letter with one keyboard shortcut. I'd even use the term 'ubercool' for that.
As I wrote in another posting: When you switch to El Capitán, you need to install the "new" Java 6 for OS X from Apple to run OpenOffice/LibreOffice and some other Java apps (do not ask why, OO/LO should run without it), but this won't interfere with the previously installed Oracle Java.
When reading some news around this, I heard that there won't be any Java for OS X for the following OS 10.12, at least not from Apple, while Oracle will probably continue the development. Again: Don't ask me what that means. Perhaps these are only rumors.
So what you want is:
Torsten: When you switch to El Capitán
My educated guess: You did a "clean install" of El Capi, and thus copulated up everything.
H.
No, I must confess the install was dirty … indeed I was unsure whether to do a clean install or not, but as there is a major hardware upgrade planned (here on the desk), I preferred to do the whole reinstall hassle later, not now.
Note: El Capi and Parallels 10 are a real nightmare (despite having the last Parallels update installed, and I won't buy the update this time), but you switched to Fusion anyway, didn't you?
Torsten RE: you switched to Fusion anyway, didn't you?
Me no use Windows. I'm a Mac pur sang.

Sorry, I cannot find the relevant postings so I'll just create a new topic.
I'd really welcome a means of automation. A Java macro tool, VBA or whatever cross-platform solution to add simple actions like:
- Change all words between tags to initial uppercase
etc. etc. etc.
Keyboard Maestro is just too problematic with CafeTran :(
