Re: Finding unused hdf data

My efforts are mostly to make translation more efficient.  So, say I had a
hdf file with this item:

Strings.hello [Lang] = hello world!

Once upon a time this was used by a cs file but the page was redesigned and
it is no longer used anywhere.  I want to get these old items out of the
system so people aren't translating them.
