Hi,
I'd like to Localize the "special" directories handled by
NSWorkspace, specifically to return the appropriate custom icon.
That is, if the Directory has a localized name, it should get the
proper icon anyway!
When I implemented this in NSWorkspace (not in GWorkspace, thus it is
available to all applications) I had two class of Directories.
"Images" and "Music" are simple. For example:
[folderPathIconDict setObject: @"MusicFolder"
forKey: [NSHomeDirectory () stringByAppendingPathComponent:
@"Music"]];
just Localizing "Music" should do the trick, thus I would have a
localizable string for NSWorkspace.
For other directories, like the Desktop or the Document, I use NS
constants:
Dir = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSDesktopDirectory,
NSUserDomainMask, YES);
I wonder, also with mac compatibility, if I NSDesktopDirectory should
return already the localized string (I guess yes, but how?) or if I
should use that constant to localize it. It would make less sense
though.

Hi,
on Linux & related systems, the correct way is to use
~/.config/user-dirs.dirs
I couldn't find more information on this, but I think I've heard about
desktop environments (in the future) using only English folder names
physically, but doing some trickery to display localized names.
More information may be found on this page:
http://freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/xdg-user-dirs
But none of the files mentioned there is found on my OpenSuse 12.2 system.
