As far as I know, emblem names is the only thing that was translated.
At the moment you can get all the emblem names by listing
`src/emblem-*` although it's very likely all of these will consolidate
into a single file.

Rodney has actually progressed with an actual build system in the
'new-build-system' branch that includes translations as far as I can
tell. But  I'm sure he can tell you more about it.
