[Feature request]: TLK Editor - Batch Add New Strings #445

Describe the solution you'd like

When using TLK Editor to add new strings to my mod, I often need to add multiple at a time. The ability to add new blank Strings in batches by specifying a range of them would be very useful.
This ensures I can easily copy-paste actual dialogue and choices into the strings from my script sequentially.

Currently, the process is to add each new string one by one, which is time consuming.

An "Add New String Range" button could be implemented.
Upon click, the user could specify a new string number to begin from and end at. IE 6830100 to 6830150.
Clicking OK or Confirm could then add these strings and the numbers in between automatically.

List alternative solutions

One can use external sheets software such as Excel or Google Sheets; however for those who wish to keep everything within the toolset itself, or don't have access to those external programs, this solution is not viable.

Currently, I copy the first several digits of the string references I want, then Add New String, then paste in the value, then manually add the last digit, incrementing by 1 each time. It takes me several minutes to add just 10 strings.

Can you build the toolset from source?
