Description

Right now updating the translation for an existing locale, or creating a new locale for the InstallApache application involves quite a bit of copy/pasting. While the list of locales grows this problem will grow with it, IMHO.

To try and combat this complexity I've created a small AIR application which is capable of loading, parsing and editing the RuntimeLocale.as (which contains all of the locale data) file of the InstallApache project.

I'll attach both an FXP export of the FlashBuilder project as well as an AIR installer for the application.
Should folks find the app useful I'll be happy to donate the code to Apache Flex.

A huge credit goes out to Michael Schmalle who created the asblocks library (https://github.com/teotigraphix/as3-commons-asblocks) which takes care of the parsing and editing of actionscript source files.
