[wp-hackers] Non-gettexted string detection tools?

[J.D. Grimes]

I’ve been working on this in my spare time, and I finally have something to show for it: https://github.com/JDGrimes/wp-l10n-validator

It probably still has some bugs in it and there are still some improvements I’d like to make, but you’re welcome to try it out. I’d be interested in any feedback.
