Wordfast 5 and fragments/fuzzy match patch Thread poster: Lucia Messuti

Message to the Wordfast team! I've seen Wordfast has several new features, which seem quite interesting. Anyway several interesting features from other CATs are still missing, although they are useful to speed up the translation work.
