Menthor Editor [ 1] is a no longer maintained[ 2] free ontology engineering tool for dealing with OntoUML models . It included OntoUML syntax validation, Alloy simulation,[ 3] [ 4] Anti-Pattern verification,[ 5] and MDA transformations from OntoUML to OWL ,[ 6] [ 7] SBVR and Natural Language (Brazilian Portuguese) .
Menthor Editor emerged from the OLED [ 8] editor, developed at the Ontology & Conceptual Modeling Research Group (NEMO)[ 9] located at the Federal University of Espírito Santo (UFES) in Vitória city, state of Espírito Santo , Brazil .
Menthor Editor was developed by Menthor using Java , was available in English , and was a multiplatform software being compatible with Windows , Linux and OS X .
The developer's of Menthor Editor reported in 2000 that it is no longer maintained and that it has been replaced by the OntoUML Plugin for Visual Paradigm,[ 10] informing that features of the Menthor Editor will gradually be migrated to this new solution.
