Speed up language pack export during deployment

Some time ago, in  INP-1197 - Getting issue details... STATUS  , functionality was added to automatically open the "Araxis Merge" comparison tool (on macOS) upon the "Synchronize" button press in the "Tools > System Tools" screen. That allows to quickly transfer any added/changed/deleted phrases from local language pack into language pack, that is committed into VCS.

It was a good idea, but implementation (initial project setup via pre-configured Araxis Merge comparison file) wasn't so good and required 5 clicks to start working in Araxis Merge (see video below):

Solution

Use AppleScript to open the comparison of "system/export/Custom.lang" and "modules/custom/install/english.lang" directly without the need to use a comparison file. After implemented only 2 clicks are required to do the same thing (see video below):
