Locale::Maketext is definitely great, here's what I do besides
tempalet.en
template.fr
etcetc based ont he MT object but in TT cod itsefl i simply get a mt
object and passit:
lh => $lh,
[% lh.maketext('Great googly moogly, why did you kill me [_1]?', you) %]
It's let me have great success in easily making things localized
without having to code a bunch of locale logic. There's a ton of other
reason too.
