Replace a Placeholder in a String

It might be possible to set placeholders into a translation string, which should be replaced by any variable part, e.g. a default file name with the program name.

In this case you can add a unique set of characters to the translation and let these unique set of characters replace by the desired program name in the returned translation.

def replaceNLS(instring, searchstr, replacestr):

Parameter instring : the string containing the to be replaced placeholder

Parameter searchstr : the unique set of characters to be replaced

Parameter replacestr : the string that will replaces the searchstr

The string with the replaced section will be returned
