Research direction
The issue proposes searching English source strings from the translator, especially longer strings, but names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by exploring how translation strings are loaded and displayed, then identify where a search could fit. Done means a translator can search English text and locate the corresponding string; the issue gives no acceptance details or tests.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
Usually, the easiest current way to translate targeted texts, that are most commonly used than others, I have to use the browser's find in page tool in the English lang file to find the string's name, and find that string in the language's string, which includes jumping between the game, English lang tab and the translator's tab.
I would suggest if there is some kind of search tool to search the English texts, I know it wouldn't work for many short strings, but mostly helpful for the longer strings.
I am fine with just searching the English lang file, but this would be a helpful tool if it's possible.
Thanks.
