List,
Does anyone know where (on the web if possible) I can find a glossary of German technical/software terms? I'm trying to read through a program from a German-made machine.

I've found http://dict.leo.org/ which is an on-line translator, and seems comprehensive.
A little too comprehensive, it seems, as certain words can turn-up long lists of phrases.

Special thanks to Z who offered to translate my list for free, J who sent me his (sizable) PDF of German terms, and J with the contact in
Austria. (Since you responded personally, I wasn't sure you wanted your names public.)

You can also try http://www.logos.it/dictionary/owa/sp?lg=EN for
translations. A bit more technical terms than an average "conversational" translator.

Try www.freetranslation.com or if you are desperate, e-mail me as I have about twenty Austrian engineers crawling all over my plant doing commissioning on a cold-roll steel mill. They will certainly be able to help...Doc
