yes, go ahead please.  and: you really do not need to ask for permission to 
commit, unless you suspect that your commit may break something else and needs 
more verification.

at this time, a call for translators.

Our command line tools (and anything that is not happening in the wxWidgets 
GUI) are not localized.  Nor are our man pages.  English only!

I have added code to localize the non-wxWidget things in an i18n branch [0].

For now it only adds a couple of strings - I've gone over the strings in the 
Hugin App that are generated outside the wxWidgets framework, as well as nona.

I don't have other locale than English on my machine, so this needs testing.

Please check out this branch of Hugin with 
  hg pull && hg up -C i18n

Build it, test it, give feedback.  If it works, we'll localize all the CLI 
commands.

And the man pages can use localization too.  These are all *.pod files in the 
doc/ folder.  Make a subfolder for your locale there according to the standard 
found in /usr/share/man (at least in Debian/Ubuntu), copy the .pod files in 
there and start hacking away.  It's a self-explanatory syntax, very much wiki-
like.
