I think that's probably the cleanest way of doing it in GNUstep at the  
moment.  OS X has a nibtool command-line app which allows you to dump  
strings from a .nib and then recreate the nib with the localised  
versions and then tweak them in IB to make sure all of the widths are  
correct.  I'd have to take a closer look at the GORM code to see how  
hard this would be to implement for GNUstep.
