GT4T uesd to work really wall until yesterday on my Win XP SP3. Yesterday MS sent a major XP update, and after then GT4T does not work any more. Ctrl+J jenerates an error with the following ID:
EventType clr20r3 P1: gt4t_api.exe P2: 1.0.0.0 P4: 4bc018ee P4: googletranslateapi P5: 0.3.1.106 P6: 4ba32b97 P7: 2b P8: 3a P9: google.api.googleapiexceptionverkoopresultaten.
Changing mode to googleapis or translate.google.com ctrl+J does not give an error, but does not produce any result either.

I tried to disinstall and reinstall and at the end of reinstall i got another error (I cannot reproduce it now)

After that gt4t can be started normally, but than it still produces the same error described above.

The target text gives both English and German versions with some extra characters.
This happens even if I use Hotspot shield. Any way to correct this?

Thanks!

It’s a bug. I will fix it now and let you know.

I wonder why did you throw out such useful feature as PastePlainText from latest version GT4T for Word? It brought me to return to V 2.76.

Would it be possible to add Bing as a translation engine (since they also publish their APIs)?

I find that for certain language pairs Bing provides a better translation than Google – it would be really nice to be able to choose which engine to use from time to time (although I suppose the name would then have to change to G&BT4T – which looks really unpronounceable!)

I am aware of the problem in 1). Processing format information can be very tedious. For the moment, please just select texts for GT to translate:-)

2. googleapis.com is an url based api officially provided by google.com. translate.google.com is to submit text to GT webpage and get results from it (which is not officially recommended by Google). GT API uses the local ajax google api… Anyway, if one mode doesn’t work properly, you may try the rest.

useful tool. A couple of questions:

1) Whenver I translate a numbered list in Word, the translation results get all scrambled up (I think it may have to do with the leading tab). The workaround is to remove the number list formatting, translate, and then add the formatting again, but it is pretty annoying. Any chance you couold do something about it?

2) What are these new options in the interface drop down list (gogleapis.com, translate.google.com and GT API)? What’s the difference between the various options?
