Hi,

Recently I've been dealing with Idiom files. The slight inconvenience for me here is that I use Ubuntu for my main work and nowadays it is only for Idiom tasks that I'm using Windows. I asked someone if it was possible to to translate the files in Ubuntu, and he suggested to convert .xlz files to .xliff and translate using Virtaal.

Does anyone know how to do this? What is your experience in this regard?

Thanks in advance!
