@Samuel

EDIT: Sorry, this is probably out of topic, as I misunderstood the point about reading TMX memories. Answer: TMX is the native memory format CafeTran uses. It does not convert TMX to another format upon import.

CafeTran can act as a powerful TMX editor via its "Edit translation memory" workflow. In this workflow, you can directly edit a TMX file and perform various TMX related maintenance tasks.

Here's how: In the Dashboard, click the Dashboard context menu button > Project type > Edit translation memory > Drag and drop the TMX file > Click the "Next segment" button to start editing. > Save the project.

- TMX related tasks are found in Task > TMX memory
- Find and replace via Ctrl + F (and select Memory target segments)
- Filter TMX files as you wish via the Filter menu

Note: The free demo version of CafeTran supports up to 500 TMX units. | EDIT: I stand corrected, this does not seem to apply when editing TMX files.

PS: TMX maintenance tasks and TMX find and replace operations can also be performed while working on a regular CafeTran project with at least one Memory attached.
