We could add such a method in MacRuby core, but I wonder if it will be really
that much of a use. NSLocalizedString macros are used in Objective-C programs
because they are parsed by the genstrings command-line tool, to generate the
translation file. I am not sure if genstrings can be used on Ruby files.
At some point we will need a l10n solution for MacRuby apps, though. I am
wondering if there isn't already a Ruby library for this? (something like
gettext?).
