Martin, Thanks for your reply. This tool is working really well. However, we ended up not using it. The main reason is it does not let us identify the status of the text entries. While our product is evolving from version to version, some texts are deleted, some are updated or created. As we are outsourcing the translation, we need to mark which text has been modified so the translator can update the translation. One option would have been to add a tag in the text; but then it will be shown on the UI.
Our solution for this issue is to maintain an XLS sheet with our texts. We highlight the cells with different colors depending on their status. A tool parse the XLS sheet and generate the properties file. Christian, If this kind of editor is integrated in the google eclipse plugin, it would be great to add this missing feature.
