CU is releasing a collection of perl scripts that can be used to convert TMs from one format to another or creating TMs from glossaries. It is important to understand that the scripts are offered without support of any kind and that you’ll need some basic knowledge of programing in order to modify the scripts to your own purpose.
When piped together and used with SED and LEX in a Unix environment these scripts can perform the convertions automatically and with great speed.
You can download the scripts from the download page.
