What good alternatives to Poedit are there?

GTed is an interesting alternative for PoEdit.

Since it is an Eclipse plugin, it suppose first the installation of eclipse: it is not a stand-alone application. But still, it can do the job.

Here are some good alternatives to Poedit:

Translation editors

• Lokalize: for KDE users (KBabel is now obsolete).
• GTranslator: for GNOME users.
• GTed_{dead link}: runs everywhere Eclipse runs.
• Virtaal: Windows, Linux, Mac. Good choice for GNOME users.

Text editor

• Vim: you can use the Vim script for po files Editing
• Emacs: you can use po mode to do your editing.

Other notes

There's a php application that would be useful for collaborative editing. Actually synchronizing with a subversion system would solve the problem anyways with any of these tools. However, if anyone does remember more applications, feel free to add.
