Dictionary Search plugin contains strange characters and no English localization [was #7528]
The dictionary search source code contains strange characters (probably Umlauts which are encoded in sth different from UTF-8). Additionally, the source code contains German strings showing up in the UI: this is against TextGrid policy that wants English strings in the default localization (and at a later point German localization using Eclipse's localization mechanism).
It should be possible to fix both problems at once by using Eclipse's String Externalization wizards: In the Message.properties files, non-ASCII characters are encoded using sth. like \u1234, IIRC.
Note that you will have to use NLS.bind() or Message.format() for message building instead of simple string concatenation to allow for proper localization.
