A lightweight selection-based translation tool written in Rust that translates highlighted text via a hotkey or automatic selection trigger. It cleans up extra line breaks to improve translation of PDF text, making it well-suited for reading academic papers.

Use cases

  • translate selected text on screen
  • translate text copied from pdfs without broken line breaks
  • quick popup dictionary while reading papers
  • lightweight background translator app

When to choose

  • you want a tiny single-executable translator that stays in the background
  • you frequently translate text from PDFs and need line-break cleanup
  • you prefer selection-triggered translation with a hotkey fallback

When to avoid

  • you need browser integration or full webpage translation
  • you need a maintained project - the latest release is from early 2023 and there is no license file
  • you need mobile or Linux Wayland support guarantees
