Sometimes we need to provide strings for displays without accents. Until now these were edited manually or using 3rd party apps via export for external review and acceptingall tracked changes - both approaches are quite timeconsuming and not very "clean and easy". Would it be possible to perform such changes directly in Editor or using any SDL tool?
Thanks
Ladislav
Hi Ladislav,
Have you tried SDLXLIFF toolkit?
It has a "Replace" tab which you can use.
Also, is this batch replace for Source or Target?
Im was trying to download the app useful file types from replsoft.com

Hi Ladislav,
I've created a blog post about the tool here:
You can download the tool from my github repository: (name is Leo.CleanUpTasks.sdlplugin).
It is still Beta though and needs more testing, so just know this is use at your own risk.
As for your issue, I believe you can setup a file like the following with the tool.
The first time you make the file, it will be a pain to add each letter, but you can save the file and reuse it once you make it.

Hello Jesse,
I am unable to install the plug-in with following message:
Also attached the files containing error description as indicated above:
Any suggestions for correct installation are welcome.
Thanks
Ladislav
Hi Ladislav,
Thanks for the error information.
I checked into where this error is happening, and it seems to be happening when trying to unzip the contents of the sdlplugin file.
I'm not exactly sure why, but the file you tried to run got corrupted somehow? (the error message says the zip file data is corrupt)
Just to be sure, are you sure you downloaded it completely before running?
I'll reupload the file here, let me know if the same thing happens again: (please change the zip extension to sdlplugin first, I had to change to zip to be able to upload here):
Hi Jesse,
well, first attempt to "open" the plugin and I have following error message:

Hi Ladislav,
Thanks for testing the plug-in and glad to hear it worked fine.
Here is an updated version which *should* work even if visual styles are disabled (I only have windows 10 to test now so I haven't tested on other version).
Also the filename has a number added to it now when I upload it here. Please rename to `Leo.CleanupTasks.sdlplugin`
