If you'd rather, you can write your own cocoa application delegate and register it -- but you'd better know what you're doing.

The easy way to change it is to just edit that string in ige-mac-integration/src/gtkosxapplication_quartz.c at line 208 and the corresponding translations in the message files in ige-mac-integration/strings. It would be better, I suppose, to get the application name from the bundle and insert it, as OSX does with the built-in menu. Perhaps I'll add that at some point when time permits.

What about replacing the NSString by a NSLocalizedString in the 
following line? Then the application could look into the language 
folder, e.g. /de.lproj, in /Resources for a translation resource like 
'Localized.strings'?

menuitem = [[NSMenuItem alloc] initWithTitle:@"Quit"
	action:@selector(terminate:) keyEquivalent:@"q"];

->

menuitem = [[NSMenuItem alloc] initWithTitle:NSLocalizedString(@"Quit", nil)
	action:@selector(terminate:) keyEquivalent:@"q"];

and so for the other menuitems ...
