I am trying to use omegaT with both japanese and french but the app does not seem to be willing to display both languages simultaneously.

Waiting for your comments and/or suggestions.

Old memories... Oct 28, 2008

I have no idea why this post has surfaced after 5 years and a half...

Anyway, OmegaT at this time had issues with font selection and/or conflicting character sets (ie I am not sure it supported Unicode back then) and all the issues have been fixed since then.

Funny to see that I still had W98 on my (now dead) ThinkPad...
