+PURPOSE:
+********************************************************************************
+This is the MS Windows and Linux version (tested with Ubuntu 10.10 and 11.04) of
+Moses2TMX 1.033.
+
+Moses2TMX started as a Windows program (tested on Windows7, Vista and XP) that
+enables translators not necessarily with a deep knowledge of linguistic tools to
+create TMX files from a Moses corpus or from any other corpus made up of 2
+separate files, one for the source language and another for the target language,
+whose lines are strictly aligned.
+
+The program processes a whole directory containing source language and
+corresponding target language documents and creates 1 TMX file (UTF-16 format;
+Windows line endings) for each document pair that it processes.
+
+The program accepts and preserves text in any language (including special
+diacritical characters), but has only been tested with European Union official
+languages.
+
+The program is specifically intended to work with the output of a series of
+Linux scripts together called Moses-for-Mere-Mortals.
+
+********************************************************************************
+REQUIREMENTS:
+********************************************************************************
+The program requires the following to be pre-installed in your computer:
+
+1) Python 2.5 or higher (The program has been tested on Python 2.5 to 2.7)
+	Windows users download and install from http://www.python.org/download/
+	Ubuntu users can use the pre-installed Python distribution
+
+2) wxPython 2.8 or higher
+	Windows users download and install the Unicode version from
+	http://www.wxpython.org/download.php
+	Ubuntu users install with: sudo apt-get install python-wxtools
+
+3) Pythoncard 0.8.2 or higher
+	Windows users download and install
+	http://sourceforge.net/projects/pythoncard/files/PythonCard/0.8.2/PythonCard-0.8.2.win32.exe/download

+INSTALLATION:
+********************************************************************************
+Windows users:
+1) Download the Moses2TMX.exe file to a directory of your choice.
+2) Double-click Moses2TMX.exe and follow the wizard's instructions.
+NOTE: Windows Vista users, to run the installation programs, by right-click on
+the installation file in Windows Explorer and choose "Execute as administrator"

+Ubuntu users:
+1) Download the Moses2TMX.tgz compressed file to a directory of your choice.
+2) Expand the compressed file and run from the expanded directory.
+
+***IMPORTANT***: Never erase the file "LanguageCodes.txt" in that directory. It
+is necessary for telling the program the languages that it has to process. If
+your TMX files use language codes that are different from those contained in
+this file, please replace the codes contained in the file with the codes used in
+your TMX files. You can always add or delete new codes to this file (when the
+program is not running).
+
+********************************************************************************
+HOW TO USE:
+********************************************************************************
+1) Create a directory where you will copy the files that you want to process.
+
+2) Copy the source and target language documents that you want to process to
+that directory.
+NOTE YOU HAVE TO RESPECT SOME NAMING CONVENTIONS IN ORDER TO BE ABLE TO USE
+THIS PROGRAM:
+
+	a) the target documents have to have follow the following convention:
+
+		{basename}.{abbreviation of target language}.moses
+
+		where {abbreviation of target language} is a ***2 character*** string
+		containing the lowercased first 2 characters of any of the language
+		codes present in the LanguageCodes.txt (present in the base directory of
+		Moses2TMX)
+
+		Example: If {basename} = "200000" and the target language has a code
+		"EN-GB" in the LanguageCodes.txt, then the name of the target file
+		should be "200000.en.moses"
+
+	b) the source language document should have the name:
+
+		{basename}
+
+		Example: continuing the preceding example, the name of the corresponding
+		source document should be "200000".
