I don't know FrameMaker, so there may be errors in my code because of
that, but I do know something about regexes. I put your text in a file
called test:
maurits@mauritsvanrees:~$ cat test
Text {_Index blabla:we _} bla {_Index {_StartRange_} bla _} bla
vla
stuff
bbgfd {_Index {_EndRange_} bla _}
Some grepping and sedding _should_ be able to produce nice results.
The following comes close:
maurits@mauritsvanrees:~$ cat test | egrep "{|}" | sed "s/^[^{]*{/{/g;s/}[^}]*$/}/g"
{_Index blabla:we _} bla {_Index {_StartRange_} bla _}
{_Index {_EndRange_} bla _}
All code is on one line; try to keep it that way when you copy it,
else you could be in for some debugging. ;-)
Alright, let's take it a step further. This seems more like what you
want, with the (_Start|EndRange_} removed and each Index thingie on
one line:
maurits@mauritsvanrees:~$ cat test | egrep "{|}" | sed "s/^[^{]*{/{/g;s/}[^}]*$/}/g" | sed "s/{_StartRange_}//g" | sed "s/{_EndRange_}//g" | sed "s/_}/_}\n/g" | sed "s/^[^{]*{/{/g;s/}[^}]*$/}/g" | egrep "{|}"
{_Index blabla:we _}
{_Index bla _}
{_Index bla _}

Okay, the code starts looking creepy now, but I simply keep increasing
the previous code:
maurits@mauritsvanrees:~$ cat test | egrep "{|}" | sed "s/^[^{]*{/{/g;s/}[^}]*$/}/g" | sed "s/{_StartRange_}//g" | sed "s/{_EndRange_}//g" | sed "s/_}/_}\n/g" | sed "s/^[^{]*{/{/g;s/}[^}]*$/}/g" | egrep "{|}" | sed "s/{_Index *//g;s/ *_}//g"
blabla:we
bla
bla
> or even better :
> %s/blabla:we//g
> %s/bla//g
> %s/bla//g
maurits@mauritsvanrees:~$ cat test | egrep "{|}" | sed "s/^[^{]*{/{/g;s/}[^}]*$/}/g" | sed "s/{_StartRange_}//g" | sed "s/{_EndRange_}//g" | sed "s/_}/_}\n/g" | sed "s/^[^{]*{/{/g;s/}[^}]*$/}/g" | egrep "{|}" | sed "s/{_Index *//g;s/ *_}//g" | sed "s/^/%s\//g;s/$/\/\/g/g"
%s/blabla:we//g
%s/bla//g
%s/bla//g
You may want to do this:
maurits@mauritsvanrees:~$ cat test | egrep "{|}" | sed "s/^[^{]*{/{/g;s/}[^}]*$/}/g" | sed "s/{_StartRange_}//g" | sed "s/{_EndRange_}//g" | sed "s/_}/_}\n/g" | sed "s/^[^{]*{/{/g;s/}[^}]*$/}/g" | egrep "{|}" | sed "s/{_Index *//g;s/ *_}//g" | sed "s/^/%s\//g;s/$/\//g" | sort | uniq > test2
maurits@mauritsvanrees:~$ cat test2
%s/bla/
%s/blabla:we/
Then edit the file test2 so it has the translations at the end of the
line. Result could be:
maurits@mauritsvanrees:~$ cat test2
%s/bla/hello
%s/blabla:we/hello hello
And then finish it:
maurits@mauritsvanrees:~$ cat test2 | sed "s/$/\/g/g"
%s/bla/hello/g
%s/blabla:we/hello hello/g

I've never been called a regex expert, but I hope this code does the
trick.

You're welcome. :)
