[Remind-Fans] How to localize messages at run time

Remind doesn't have GNU "gettext" localization or similar, so unfortunately
error messages, etc. cannot be localized at run-time.

However, you can localize the day and month names, etc. at run-time by placing
the following at the top of your .reminders file:

    INCLUDE [$SysInclude]/lang/auto.rem

This is something each Remind user would have to do and it's documented
in the man page in the LANGUAGE PACKS section.

You can see how it works by looking at the contents of the lang/auto.rem
file.

Dianne.
