### Credits

This user manual is the joint work of Jean-Christophe Helary, Samuel Murray, Maxym Mykhalchuk, Henry Pijffers and Vito Smolej.

It would not have been possible to write such a manual from scratch without the original documentation that Marc Prior has authored and maintained until OmegaT version 1.4.2, Dmitri Gabinski has updated for OmegaT version 1.4.4, and without the input from the user list and the support of the many people who participate to the development of OmegaT. Let us extend our thanks to all the people in the OmegaT community for their energy and inspiration.

### Contact

This manual is not perfect and will be modified over the course of time and following the evolution of OmegaT. If you notice discrepancies between what is described here and OmegaT's behaviour do not hesitate to contact Vito Smolej at vitosmolej AT users DOT sourceforge DOT net.
