Unless it has changed in recent revisions, multilanguage support within
linuxcnc itself is handled using gettext; which should make
internationalization comparatively easy. In theory, this should only require
a couple of env variables to be set to change the language - not quite
single click, but not complex either.

 The following link has basic instructions:
http://wiki.linuxcnc.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?Internationalization

The documentation is trickier - since that tends to be natural language
rather than single phrases. It doesn't help that it's not exactly up to date
in english...
