The tool make_string works on the given list of files. If your are
working with a proper shell you could provide all Objective-C files from
subdirectories. I am no shell programmer, but something like
make_strings -L English `find . -name '*.m'`
should work for you.

This error message is not related to the spellchecker. It just tells you
that there are no language resources for the given value XXXXX. You
should always include English as a fallback language in NSLanguages.

No, but it should not be too hard to implement if your are interested.
Just have a look at the code in gui/Tools/GSspell.m
