Improvements of Tooltip Creation in Online Help

1 Requirements

Tooltips can only create and edit by hand. You must write the Tooltip-ID and then the text of the Tooltip in the creation or search for a extended Tooltip manually.
 
I have a idea to make it easier and faster for the future:
 
We write the Tooltips in a Excel-table. The table have components of Tooltip-ID and the Description and other Components, but they are not important to create Tooltips in ILIAS, only Tooltip-ID and the Description. It is possible to save this in a CSV-File, for example:

blog_content;Bloginhalte hinzufügen, sie editieren und einsehen
blog_create;Blogeinträge verfassen und veröffentlichen

The idea is a import function, to import a CSV-table File and to create from this File the entrys in the database:
 
For not existing ToolTips:
The ToolTip will be created by the ID and the description from the CSV-Table File.

For existings ToolTips:
the ID and description will be check with the existing ToolTip in the database from the CSV-Table File. If will be anything changed in the Description String of the CSV-Table, than should be replace the Tooltip from the CSV-Table.

The seperator in my example is an ";" (semicolon), that can be changed, for example: "~", "'", "¿" or anything else.

At last, a export function from the database in a CSV-table File, will be fine. ;-)
 
I hope that is easy to programming, because that is very useful! :-)
