Objective
---------
- Create a message catalog facility to ease translation of menus and help file
systems.
- Primary language is English. It should allow incomplete translations. That
is, if only one part is translated it will appear in the translated language
and the part that is not, will appear in English.
- It is ok if changes only appear after restart
- There is a common message repository for common things like
Yes, No, Cancel, Help, About etc.
- There is a single file for every module where all the messages are stored
- In modules like Apache, it is possible to have an additional file per module
- The names of the files are:
message.2letter_country_code like messages.es o messages.fr
- Instead of doing it in XML, just plain text to simplify and reduce errors.
- It will be done at startup time and transparent ot the user when creating
directives.
