And for all this talk of "ease of use", XML is *far* easier to look at and tell what the heck it's doing from an end user standpoint; you may not notice this because you're opening the file in Excel but this remains the case.
The true mark of the devs taking over is if they changed all these files to use JSON instead. 
One thing I would love is something to edit the english.xml file. I have half a mind of working on one myself... |
Never touched excel or any spreadsheet program with the old txt files. Just edited and saved. Just looking at the problems others are having in this thread is giving me a headache. Boo to whoever made this change. I actually may have stuck with 22 if I knew beforehand
