Hans,

Perhaps this isn't helpful, but you might want to take a look at Getleft:

http://personal1.iddeo.es/andresgarci/getleft/english/

It's a well-localized Tk app that runs on the Mac and allows switching 
of languages with a simple menu entry. I think it just uses msgcat, but 
it's very straightforward.
