The Linguistics Research Center (LRC) at the University of Texas at Austin is currently developing METAL, a fully-automatic high quality machine translation system, for market introduction in 1985. This paper will describe the current status of METAL, emphasizing the results of the most recent post-editors' evaluation, and will briefly indicate some future directions for the system. A 6-page German original text and a raw (unedited, but automatically reformatted) METAL translation of that text into English are included as appendices.
