Automatic internationalization script?

[Kerbas_ad_astra]

When I internationalized XT Landertrons, I crawled through the config files and internationalized everything by hand.  No big deal, since there's just five parts and a handful of notification strings.

I'd like to internationalize HGR, though, which has dozens of parts, so I'm a lot more interested in an automated solution.  I'm envisioning a script that operates on a folder and goes through each part and pulls out the title, manufacturer, description, and tags into an en-us.cfg file.  Meanwhile, each autoloc tag gets generated automatically, in a format like "#autoLOC_[short_name_or_abbr_for_mod]_[partname]_title" (and "_desc", "_mfg", and "_tags").

If nobody's made a script like this, I'll make one in Python and submit it to @taniwha's cfgnode library, but I figured I'd ask around first.  (@linuxgurugamer, have you made something like this?)

Nope.

And I'd be interested in it as well.

But, before you do, do a few searches to see if there is something out there already

As would I. Consider the PR already accepted

Thanks for the heads-up!  I might still make the python script to have an 'offline' option that doesn't require opening KSP, but I won't block HGR's release on it.
