Remarks

String localization is done via "Localizable.strings" files within language-specific project directories (e.g., "es.lproj" for Spanish). The files are key-value text pairs separated by semicolons, with /* */ comments. These files should be included in the project as "BundleResource"s.

The language-specific project directories should be named according to ISO 639-1 or ISO 639-2. The application will use the directory appropriate to the application user's current system settings.
