Some small feature requests #637

Hey, I've recently started using Kuriimu and I've been enjoying it very much so far, but I have a couple of small requests I'd like to see added:

A show all characters button
The inclusion of the current string number in the counter above the string list, as well as a percentage of how many strings have been translated
Support for the OS spell checker
Support for Ctrl + F-ing string names
A character counter to compare the original string and the translation

Thanks in advance!

I don't quite understand what that means? What does "all characters" refer to?
Sounds doable
Any kind of spell checker should suffice right? We don't need to rely on any native thing, if we could have the possibility of having a cross platform spell checker.
Just the string names? I imagine to search over the strings contents also, might be better?

\1) It's this button that's present in most text editors: It displays stuff like spaces and line breaks. \3) I'd argue using the native OS spell checker would be better, since you'd be able to use your own settings and not have to rebuild things like your personal dictionary \4) Searching string contents is already implemented \5) (I've added this one after you've responded, sorry!)

So a button to make special characters and the like visible
I didn't mean to write our own spell checker, but since our application is currently undergoing a 2nd revision, which is also cross-platform due to .NET Core, we might want to use either a built-in spell-checker or a nuget package that does it, instead of relying on a probably windows native spell checker, if you know what I mean.
Adding searching through the string titles, to what already exists, got it.

Yep!
Alright, whatever you think is better.
Right, thanks!

One last thing. I couldn't find a key combo to advance to the next string. Some other localisation programmes use Ctrl + Enter. Do you think it'd be possible to add it?
