Can Globalyzer Workbench help me build resource files and externalize strings from my source code?

Yes it can, and it will add great productivity to that long and tedious task. It is common for developers to be able to comfortably externalize 1,000 strings and more per day using Globalyzer. Globalyzer lets you see the string within your code and manages the whole externalization process. It is customizable, giving the developer complete control while aiding productivity.

Is Globalyzer Workbench automatically (automagically) fixing my code? Is Globalyzer Workbench adding anything proprietary?

No, Globalyzer does not make changes without your knowledge and does not add any proprietary elements to your source code. However, once you do approve the fix for one or more internationalization issues, Globalyzer does have highly productive capabilities to speed up repetitive internationalization tasks, such as string externalization.

What does "nature" mean?

"Nature" is an Eclipse notion. Project natures act as tags on a project to indicate that a certain tool is used to operate on that project. When you create a project and add a Globalyzer Nature to the project, that project can have scans, etc.

In Globalyzer Workbench, after the string extraction, can a developer tell what string is associated with the string key other than opening up the resource file?

If you select an externalized string key in the source code, you can right click and select Globalyzer->Resources->Go to Resource Definition and it will bring up the resource file with that entry highlighted. Also, if you set the preference to Window -> Preferences -> Globalyzer - Automatically Insert Externalized String Comment, when strings are externalized, a comment will be added to the source file with the text of the string that was externalized.
