==Overview==

Tikal is a cross-platform command-line tool that performs some simple localization-related tasks, such as:

* Extract and merge [[XLIFF|XLIFF documents]].
* Query different MT and TM systems.
* Perform format conversions.
* Translate directly files in various formats using TM or MT systems.
* Segment a source text.
* And more...

Like other Okapi applications, Tikal uses the components provided by the Okapi libraries, for example [[Connectors|the connectors to different translation resource engines]] such as [[Apertium MT Connector|Apertium MT]], [[Translate Toolkit TM Connector|Translate Toolkit TM]], [[Google MT v2 Connector|Google MT]], [[Microsoft Translator Connector|Microsoft Translator]], [[MyMemory TM Connector|MyMemory TM]], etc.

Tikal also uses the [[Filters|Okapi filters]], allowing you to process files in many different formats, such as: [[HTML Filter|HTML]], [[OpenOffice Filter|ODT]], [[OpenXML Filter|DOCX]], [[PO Filter|PO]], [[XLIFF Filter|XLIFF]], [[TMX Filter|TMX]], [[XML Filter|XML]], and many more. Its extraction and merge functions let you create easily [[XLIFF|XLIFF documents]].
