Apple
software glossaries (FTP site)
Official Apple terminology glossaries in many languages
and in 3 formats: tab-delimited text (each glossary is
around 30k in size), ClarisWorks spreadsheet and
AppleGlot. Each format is contained in a different
directory. Note that all files are compressed with the
Macintosh-specific compression software StuffIt.
I found connecting to this site sometimes difficult. If
you can't connect, try the base FTP directory
(ftp://ftp.apple.com) and then follow the links to
"devworld / Tool_Chest / Localization_Tools /
Apple_Intl_Glossaries"
