What I need is a tool that will open both .strings source files,
merge them, and keep the first instance of any duplicate strings.
Something like
cat source1.strings source2.strings | sort | uniq
>result.strings
Will this work for UTF-16 (AFAIK, .strings are recommended to be
such)?
A quick test (taking a random, Apple provided .strings file,
converting it to UTF-16 in Xcode and sorting it at the CLI) worked.
The resulting file remains to be UTF-16 encoded. The answer should be
"yes".
If the OP's .strings file still contains Classic Mac (\r) line
endings, he should convert them by adding a
tr '\r' '\n' |
right before the "sort" command. There's still a chance it won't work
for non-ASCII-similar text files (other line endings than /n:
Japanese, Chinese, Hebrew, Cyrillic, ...); I'll leave it up to test
this to those having such files handy.
