Development environment: SimpleCat plugin for Cubic IDE
SimpleCat is a program for maintaining catalogs (tanslations). It offers more features than the cat program of the AmigaOS and MorphOS SDK: Powerful import and export functions, validity checks and a graphical user interface make the life of developers easier and the program first choice for translators.

The add-on for Cubic (Screenshot) integrates SimpleCat into the interface of the development environment, with syntax highlighting for translations and clickable log files. SimpleCat was developed by Guido Mersman and the latest version is included with kind permission of the author.
