You can also use gettext where a function such as _("string-to-be-translated");
converts a string in several languages. Just compile and link that C library.

By displaying Strings with [[NSString new] UTF8String] you can display them in
UTF8 display systems such as Cocoa or GNUStep windows and widgets.

If you want the same for a _shell_ you use the locale, not counting terminals
written with UTF8 support on the visual etc.
