Translations of the omc kernel

[Martin Sjölund]

We need to mark translation strings using System.gettext("mystring") so we can proceed with translations in the omc kernel.
The biggest chunk of strings that the user can see are the ones in Error.mo. Sadly, they are constant strings, which means they are hard to mark. Also, multi-line strings seem to not be supported by xgettext.

Ok, I think I figured out a solution to mark the string in Error.mo:

public GetTextMark
  record gettext "Used to mark messages as targets for translation"
    String msgid;
  end gettext;
end GetTextMark

public constant Message SYNTAX_ERROR = MESSAGE(1, SYNTAX(), ERROR(),
  gettext("Syntax error near: %s"));
...
And then later call System.gettext(msgid), which will translate the string.
