ResXer Description
ResXer provides programmers and software developers with a simple means of editing the content of RESX files from within a user-friendly interface.
An easy to use resource editor
With a straightforward interface and intuitive options, ResXer is easy to get accustomed with. As a matter of fact, using it requires no documentation and its developer decided not to include any.
The GUI consists of a single window with all the options at hand. The upper side is dedicated to common actions such as opening and saving resource files, while the lower pane displays the content of the loaded file.
Edit string resources from a single data grid
ResXer analyzes the input file and displays the keys and their description in an organized table, alongside comments, if available. You can tamper with any of the fields and modify their content or add comments yourself and then save the result. This particularly comes in handy if you want to edit translation resources.
With just a click you can add new string resources or remove existing ones. ResXer also enables you to edit and insert embedded or linked images in your resource file.
Additionally, the application supports opening two or more files at once, allowing content comparison and synchronization.
A resource editor that needs further improvements
ResXer makes it easy for programmers to edit their RESX files, proving to be a reliable tool that can facilitate the translation of strings to multiple languages. It displays all the data in a single grid with editable fields, so working with it is really easy. It does its job well, but there are other resource editors out there with additional features such as automatic detection of missing translations.
