I need to support a software product to be used in different countries.
I am looking for suggestions on ways to support multiple human languages
for this system. The software in written in C and will run on UNIX boxes.

I am most interested in ways to store the different text strings and
switch between them. Does anyone have some ideas or recommendations for
doing this?

Thanks,
